45mm Sidedraft Weber on Lynx Manifold

Hi All
I have a 45mm DCOE Weber on a Lynx manifold for sale. The manifold started life for a GT Hunter but has been shaved to suit an Alpine Engine Bay (Hunter motors are slanted at a 10 deg angle to fit under the hood). It sits almost horizontal this allows the carb to clear the bulkhead brace so you don't need to remove or modify the brace. The linkage on the side of the carb is for a cable throtle set up but you could easily remove this for your own throttle application. The manifold has been ceramic coated inside and out, does not include air filters.

Pm me for a price . Please note that price for postage may take to a day or two. Forgot to mention I am in Australia so postage steep to USA ($170AUD come on guys get that greenback healthier $180AUD to UK).

ps As per previous post does not include air filters but the better option of velocity stacks to use foam socks style air filters. I have added some photos to be a bit more clearer to enlarge just click on the photo .Sorry

Did you actually have this set-up on your car? If yes, could you post the settings (main jets, idle jets, etc.) you used on the carb.?
Thanks.

Hi Peter,

I see that this is not the only thing up for sale. Why the sale?

Regards, Robin.

Yeah, I can't find it either. Looked on US eBay site with 'worldwide' selected, and also looked on the Australian eBay site directly. No can find.

Yeah, I saw it today too, Jim. But Robin's comment about there being more for sale seems odd, as there are no other items under the seller's ID. Hmm.

Robin is reffering to peter advertising his SIVGT locally.. a car he has owned for along time.. peters post in another section explains this.. an MGRV8
