u will need a new one. I think that you may also need new petrol lines etc, cos ur going from injection to carbs. Not sure tho.

You will need a 1200/1300 carb head from a nova. The sports were 1.3, but the manifold will go on 1.2's.

1600 gsi inlet should work

with regards injection pump and lines the fuel pressure will be much greater than you need, fuel pressure regulator and your sorted

cheers will, that sounds more like it, i will double check first tho, so the carbs will fit on the inlet manifold coz i thought they were different coz of the injection rail and that, then again i dont know much about the inlet side of things

you need to fit a new inlet manifold, this will remove all of your injeciton stuff and fuel rails - thats all surplus

as will said - 1600 inlet is fine.

id KEEP the 1400 head, and get a 1600 TBH the head is much better flow charcterisitics than any 1200.

so its as simple as that? 1600 gsi/gte inlet manifold and i can stick the sport carbs straight on? will i need a new fuel regulator?

not the manifold off an actual GSI/GTE they are totally wrong.

U need a Weber manifold that matches the t40's.

Imaging 4 empty toilet rolls glued together side by side. They look along those lines.

yer u need an inlet manifold for fitting twin carbs to a 1600GTE/GSi not the original 1600 inlet

u will need a pressure regulator and some kinda return to the fuel tank unless u wanna frag the regulator and you will most definetly need the carbs fully rejetted at a weber specialist rolling road
