This vendor sells tall W-30 style hoods:

Scroll to the bottom of the page for pictures. Unfortunately, I don't know how this helps your problem, since the valley between the two scoops is at the same height as stock. This doesn't provide any additional clearance over the carb.
 
Again i want to say thanks guys for helping out I want to stay with the w-30 hood for appearances but if i can't find one then i will just go with a after market cowl induction hood with 3 inch lift. Like i said before i am unsure of the company and for all i know they could be out of business this was just a shot in the dark but they made the W-30 hood and raised the rear of the portion of it to clear carb and that is what i am going for.
