I'm looking for a new manifold for my A14 and maybe a new carbie to go with it.
I've just been talking to a carb shop (whatever you call them) and they say the only aftermarket manifold made in Australia for the A14 is for twin webbers, which is about $1200 all up, which is a bit out of my price range. Other than that he said I'd have to hunt around the wreckers till I find another standard inlet manifold and bolt an aftermarket webber onto that.
Is all of this right? Are there any other options around because I've been looking for a manifold for ages and they just arent around.

what do you want to run?

are they saying the manifold is 1200 bucks!? for the manifold and twin webers that's not a bad price but those type of manifold are anywhere from $140- $250 or something

try get a set of used twin webers or dellortos and just buy a new oval port manifold if u cant find a used one.still should have some change from 1200 bucks.linkages,jets,air filters and lines etc but will sting u a bit.

I'd be pretty happy to run anything I could get but I don't want to spend much more than $500. I've been looking around for used webbers but nothing good has come up yet. And apparently the only place to get a standard manifold now is the wreckers.
It was $1200 for brand new twin webbers and manifold that should bolt straight up.

make do with wat ur got i reckon and save up the $1200.thats a bargain i reckon,go twin carbies sound the best.!

Right now theres other stuff I want more than performace like a paint job and some suspension work. And when you bought the car for $1600 it's hard to justify spending $1200 on carbs..
It'll probably be just one of those down the track maybe things.
