Yeah. That's the one. Anyone use them? Looks like the firewall mount is wide enough to clear. I called Mooreparts but they never called back. I'll try again but a answer on here would prob be easier.

anyone have one laying around to replicate? mooreparts said they wish they would have saved one to replicate as the original person making them disappeared without a word. How much do you think it would cost to have someone make one?

I sort of copied it when I built mine. I know it took les than $30 in tubing. The main parts are the sides and the top, the sides are a 45* bend then a 90* and then another 45* and the top is 4 45* bends, just have to make it fit your build. Not as hard as it looks.
