I've got the very thing for you, got them made for me about two years ago, and never had a use for them yet, they fit onto the two top bolts on the head, I'll get a photo up if i can find them, i think i know where they are???

It might need a bit of fettling to fit onto/around your manifold, i had them made for the R1 manifolds.

Have you tried getting back in touch with pete at bogg bros with some of this. I would try and help but my bikecarbs were fit to a 1.4 8v so didn't have same trouble sorry.
