Default VIC JR and Fuel Rail Question

I got a vic jr, but did not get the edlebrock rails... However my other rails do not have the mounting holes in the same place... Has anyone else had a similar issue. and if so what did you do to fix the problem... If you need pics I can take some tonight....

This does not do me a lot of good since I just bought these rails. I would much rather find a way to make them work..

That is why I asked the question to see what others have done... And what they used to make them!

Ok I went to Home depot yesterday to see what I could find... I bought some strips of aluminum and cut and bent them and was able to make a pretty good looking bracket I will take pics when i get them all cleaned up

Ensure the rails are very stable, and cannot tilt. Its been known for weak bracket to bend, allowing the injectors to come out, and fuel to go everywhere.

A 2 sided bracket is better, or a very strong 1 sided

It is a pretty strong bracket, I think that I may make it a double sided just to ensure no problems... They were not that hard to make.
