Hi Kevin,
I have installed weber carbs on old Italian and English cars (and some of them where RHD, by the way). Cables were always a pain in the butt. We would systematically install a rod across the firewall when carburetor linkage was on the wrong side - you could consider this.

Now just asking: why do you keep the turkey pan? Patrick - I would keep the lower plate, which seems convenient, but I don't believe the pan itself does anything but restrict airflow to the intake. Unless you have a gigantic hood scoop?
On my Cobra, before it received the 8 barrel intake a few weeks back, I had gotten rid of the turkey pan and put a 3" tall, 45 deg aluminum plate in front of the crossmember to push fresh air inside the engine compartment as suggested by a guy on cobra talk. Outcome was obviously positive, especially above 4000 rpm in 3rd and 4th gears.
