Can get carbs off e-bay or find a local bike breaker who has yet to hear about fitting them to cars, as those that have are starting to charge dcoe style prices. If the bike they're coming off had an electric fuel pump, try to get that aswell, as it will allready be set for the right fuel pressure.
Bogg bros will do you a manifold, but you're looking at around ?180 for one, unless you can find someone local who can make one up.
Does the engine currently run on a dizzy? if not you may need to find one and wire it in.

You will need an old mk2 cav dizzy and coil setup.
