You have any more pics of this... may be the manifold on yahoo auctions and may be a great alternative to the LHD crowd

edit: or are those 32/36's??

They are 36/36 Webers, which look like the 32/36 on the outside. The manifold is custom made from aluminum.

This is Datsa73's engine. Here is a better view:

This engine runs very well, has a slight lope at idle, but runs smooth at lower rpms. The power comes on harder starting about 3,000 rpm

Thanks for the post of the pictures. I need to get a digital camera some day. I have pictures of the intake when it is off the car. I'll have to dig them out and scan them when I get a chance.

Any chance of getting a manifold like that? I have several DGEV's at home, it would be excelent set up for my A15.
Also, what do you think of the 38DGAS, would it be too much carburator , than the 32/36?

You can make a manifold like this. A box sections for each carb, bolt to a standard DCOE manifold, with a balance tube between the boxes with a place for the PCV valve.

These are 36/36 according to Datsa73. But then this a "big block" A15 with high-flow heads, cam and exhaust.

Here's the tachometer approaching 8000 rpm:
