Default Installing manifolds and dry risers. Where to relocate shifter/remote oil filter

Does anyone make a nice aftermarket mount for the shifter linkage and remote oil filter housings that originally bolted to my stock risers? this is a gen4 carbed 454.

im installing a new motor with gil manifolds and I dont think they allow for mounting like the factory does. Id really like to clean up the engine bay a bit and get it mounted out of the way if possible.

Any ideas?

I mounted my shift mechanism on the inside of the stringer under and to the front of my engine . No bracket needed and no cables up top for the world to see . You can see here where and how i mounted the oil filter .

You can easily mount them both on the transom. For the remote oil filter, just cut a piece of 1.5" heavy duty aluminum angle and drill holes for the remote mount and screw it to the transom. The shift linkage can just be screwed to the transom using the holes that are already there.
