Hi Guy

Would you have or could you advise me on where I would get a Inlet Manifold for a single Weber 40 DCNF carb to suit a Tipo 1400?. I have tryed many places inculding Chadil but to no avail.

Truth is if you found one like the one I modified last you'd probably be shocked by the casting quality anyway! I was..

I would not try to find one. I would use the std one, cut off the old carb flange and weld a new one for the DCNF, get it fettled by yours truly.

OK?

I could probely get a std one all right but where would i get the DCNF flange? Could you do the job for me, keeping in mind the regs i have to follow?

No, I have to avoid specials due to time constraints these days but any machine shop could make that from alloy patterned off the carb flange.
Maybe there is a site member who has that capability.

I'm sure Bogg Brothers could do the mod for you. I have heard lots of good things about their work.
