Easy deal to do yourself, all you really need is a drillpress

Is your intake machined for a shoe and rideplate or is it stock? If it is not you will have more work on your hands then you think.

It is already machined... In fact, there is already a ride plate on it, but it is all bent up and I'd like to have the new one built a bit longer too...
So, basically I just need somebody who can fabricate me a piece of aluminum just like the one I have but longer... So, my current one can easily be used as a template...

If you want to ship it to me, I can duplicate the rideplate you have now.

I would think any good welding shop could do it. I have seen a few guys have angle pieces welded to the sides to add stiffness.
