Ellis Intake

Haven't been on this forum for a few years but now I need some advice...

I have '42/46 Fargo half ton pu.  I want to install a dual carb Ellis Intake on the engine.  I've seen some installed where the throttle linkage travel across the engine but on my  truck the linkage travels from the firewall.  So any ideas?  The problem is actually that the B&B carbs mount onto the intake 90* off to the way they mount on the stock intake.  Right now I'm thinking of marketing an adapter plate but would rather not.  All suggestions, as long as they are polite LOL, will be appreciated.

I'm no expert, but it is my understanding that the Ellis intakes were designed for truck applications...… thus the carb mounting is turned 90 * from the car mounting so as to be able to use the truck style firewall mounted throttle linkage.
