Look to be a complte A12GX manifold setup, but with british SUs.

That heat shield is rare.

It needs an extra large head, the A14 head is not large enough.

Why's that DD, is it because of the oval ports?

A12GX oval ports are much larger than A14/A15 oval ports.

It will fit on a standard A14 head, but the ports will be mismatched.

Take a closer look and you'll notice that the carbs are A14T and the manifold I'd A12T. The carbs will not fit on the manifold. The English SU is 2 bolt like the Hitachi. The manifold and shield is half the battle. IMO the $250 starting bid is the value of the setup. No more. As you still need to get some carbs to suit.

What you could do is something truly unique for a road car is adapt two 40DCOE webers to it, only running one side of each carby like they did in the old PRC rally days. That would be cool.
