HI,

Only just saw this.

Nice manifold but you will not be able to use a 32/36 carb with it as each choke feeds a different cylinder so two cylinders would be fed with big chikes and two with small. Also the second two would only open when the throttle was more than 2/3 open. It is a perfect manifold for the 38dgas as all chokes are the same size and open at the same time.


Regards
Tom

Hi,

Nope no carbs fitted, manifold has now been identified as a Mk1 grp1 escort manifold.

Unfortunatley i listed the manifold on ebay as i have just started a 24v cosssy conversion. I was told what the manifold was 20mins before the auction ended.

Didnt really want to let it go but it has paid for my new engine. :P

Thanks all for the info.
