I was thinking of a windage tray that I used on the race car. It mounts between the pan and block.

If possible we try to stay away from sandwiching anything not absolutely necessary between the pan and block for a street build. If your block is a 74, the bosses should be cast into the main caps, you can easily drill and tap the mounting holes there. If not we have used factory head bolts with the threaded accessory studs for the main cap bolts. You can drill the corresponding holes in the factory or Tomahawk style windage tray and mount it with four nuts.... Just make sure the head bolts are close to the same length as your original main cap bolts.
