Hi Jon
Yes bespoke it is. It’s a standard sports type inlet manifold with the flangecut off and a 80 degree elbow welded on. The carb is an H2 SU with the float chamber to carb body link modified to bring the chamber closer to the carb and get the float level right.
Two benefits I see are a lower carb position allowing gravity feed from the Chummy tank and avoiding the heat rising off the exhaust manifold. The air intake is low down and should bring cold air in.
However the proof of the pudding......
Cheers
