As long as they haven’t drilled any holes anywhere, shouldn’t be much trouble registering this… if I squint enough it looks about right to me!

Its a lovely thing, maybe nicer to look at than fit ?

Not sure about the logic of taking the four inlet ports and putting a four into two manifold on it....haven't you just changed it back into a five port ?

YIKES!

I have just sold 2 of those. One for £1500 & the other for £800.

It would have to be absolutely mint, new & complete with carbs, inlets & cam to justify that price!
