Installation Andair fuel valve in QB?

Looking for how to handle the installation of an Andair fuel valve in the RV8 QB which has the F-883-1 fuel valve bracket pre-drilled for the vans valve. It appears too small to mount the Andair fuel valve. Any solutions in to installation would be much appreciated.
 
Yes---the Andar vavle has a different pattern. Easy to take another piece of aluminum and make a bracket. Most do.

This is how I did it. There are many examples out there.

I made a duplicate cover out of plexi to make the solid lines easier with the valve mounted to the cover. Made the final cover out of .063 for more support

Thanks for the quick response. I thought so, but visual options to a new builder are a tremendous confidence builder. Thanks again
