Unfortunately, this will require a new plenum design. Probably something with a bolt on top. This may delay the finish of the project, but it's better to get it done right instead of faster.
Yep thats the way! --- I may do the same on mine. Some type of sheetmetal (alum) intake system that emulates an EFI plenum look but just covers the entire carb with the input end like a throttle body. I like that look.
