I've got everything to do that Pete, except one carb, but it runs so good I'm not going to do that. I want to get rid of that vent and old flame arrestor. They make an after market aluminum valley pan, but I'd rather find an old metal one that I can paint, if I can.

Bruce,
How about spot welding in a patch on the existing to cover the old hole and then Bondo it smooth? |

That's an option, although kind of a project for me as I'd have to pay someone to do the welding and figure out how to do the bondo.
These things are readily available. 
I've got to pull the intake to block the center journals and get a new carb as the current one is not a marine carb and those Classics have no ventilation. |
