Thanks for the responses. I picked up a set from Speedway with brackets for ~$40.

You have some nice looking ones C9x! I have access to a fully equipped machine shop but I can stomach $40.

BTW, is there a particular rule of thumb for the angle separating the rods, or distance apart at the firewall? Form the photos it appears as though its around 12-14"? I will not be running any hood pieces.

Thanks, Regards, Kitz
