Also, there is a Chinese/Canadian version by EMPI, HPMX 40 but these run at about $300. You might find a pair of Italian/Spanish weber carbs on a Porsche 914 here in NZ which would to the trick.

Interesting looking manifold. Looks like heavy plates are married to a central cast part.

manifolds made by butchering the Ducati Paso manifolds, re-welding, they fit into stock rubbers. A little hard to start when cold but runs really well. Throats have spacers for extra length. Uses XZ fuel pump.

More suppliers of the Chinese Webers here, one company advertises that they supply single units.

Looking at both Treedragon's and POD's setup and the base of these Weber IDF's carbs, I would guess that it would be possible to have identical inlet pipes and flanges for both front and rear cylinders. This would make manufacture and installation a lot easier. Is there be any advantage in having a plate welded between the two inlet pipes?
