Pinto Single DCOE Manifold

Morning All...

I have a donor with a 1.6 pinto engine, and I want to replace the DGAV carb with a DCOE so I don't have to cut the top of the bonnet.

The reason for doing this is... Initially, this is to go through the SVA as a standard 1.6 Sierra based Tiger, and then post SVA it will probably get a new 2L lump when time and funds allow.

I know Lynx do a crossover single DCOE manifold, but I cant seem to find anyone else who does Pinto singles for love nor money...

Anyone a) got one...
b) know where to get one...?

Cheers

Pete

not saying it'll make better power, but there's a lot to be said for the single weber lynx manifold, makes awesome low down torque, used one on a road rally car in the past where you can only use 2 chokes of induction, and they grunt like crazy!
