IIRC The inlet manifold is still available.

Pretty sure it's still listed in the Rally Design catalogue

Round about £230 (I think)

Yours?
If so.
Any chance of a copy of the map your using?

I'm working on the same sort of thing at the moment using 38mm GSXR600 TB's

Thanks
Much appreciated

The runners on the manifold look to be a bit on the long side for my liking
I plan on having 1 set of injectors where they're shown inyour pic and the 2nd set where they're originaly fitted on the TB's

Might just have been removed to enable fitment of the bodies
Now he's trying to figure out exactly how to get it to fit.

IIRC they were sold on Ebay cause they were too big(45mm I think)
After discusion on here and reading about Toby's issues with 45 mm bodies on his M30 I reckon the 38's might well be enough

I had some on a 3-door Cosworth shell I got hold of years ago. I built a 3-door Cossie from scratch, with all original parts....minus the engine, as I was too young for insurance, but I did slap some twin 40s on with braided hoses and Pipercross 'sock' filters. It sounded awesome, went okay, but needless to say, I needed a petrol station of my own to fuel the thing! In the end gave up and got a 900 Turbo instead :)

Back to your quest: I've seen a 318 with them on.
