this is not mine but I have one that looks just like it. My manifold doesn't have the JS but it's clearly the JS version as it has the balance tube and everything else.

In the nearly 4 years I have been looking for JanSpeed items on fleabay, can I not recall seeing such a setup ?mniwagn wrote:what would you think one of these setups would be worth complete with airbox and linkage never used
but I could have missed one on buy now, or when away on holiday.
David Vizard has some very positive comments, regarding this manifold (see page 155, in his Yellow bible)
He regards this manifold to be one of the best, for either 2 SU,s or twinWeber.
This manifold is also used on my Turbo conversion, but here did JanSpeed convert it, to take the twin choke Dellortho.
I have seen wanted posts, on different Mini forums, regarding this setup, but never seen a price?
With the current "price war" on fleabay, who knows where it will go ? maybe no where
In 1984 it cost 178 pounds, and in 1989 the price was 262 pounds(with HS4,s) .
Yes I also collect the JS catalouges I collect ALL things JanSpeed he he

you think it would be easy to make a plate that bolted to a weber manifold that would convert it to two s.u's.....

Sounds like a job for a DU6 twin choke SU. They're a good looking carburettor.guru_1071 wrote: you think it would be easy to make a plate that bolted to a weber manifold that would convert it to two s.u's.....
