Fitting Twin Weber To Pinto Engine

[Guest lotusPaul]

The gap between coils is supposed to be 0.040 inches.

Right guys this is the problem I have got with my twin webers catching on the black chassis rail as seen in the picture. I have got a GBS Zero.

I have seen these two manifolds but I want to make sure I actually buy the right one. I have seen this one on eBay:

Or these from Dan engineering:

Anyone know which one will be best to get?

The danst one isn't suitable as the angle is too great. Their page says: "The angle of this manifold is 20 degrees and thus NOT suitable for DCOE/DHLA carburettors"

Right, I have finally fitted my twin Weber DCOE 40s but now I am struggling to figure out how to convert the single throttle cable to a twin cable and how to fit the manual choke cable. Does anyone have any pictures that they could send me to help me out?
