I believe a couple forum vendors have them. Not sure but I'm thinking porterbuilt?

Re: Where can i find shaved firewall kits

I've never seen a kit. What I did was cut out the tunnel and ground everything off. I then welded up all of the seams and made a new tunnel. I made a template and transposed it onto wood and cut it out with a jig saw. After that I screwed a piece of sheetmetal to the wood and used my plasma cutter to create the flat piece. Weld and grind

Here's some pics

Scotts Hot Rods makes one. They don't show or list the 73-87 on their firewall page but they do or at least did make one.
