Dave,

I bought a set of 1 1/2" SUs and a UK spec manifold from a guy, I can
dig out his number.  They fit except you need to make a slight dent in
the brace that is welded to the inner fender.  A couple of minutes
with a ball peen hammer and it looks almost stock.  The hard thing to
find in the states is a 1500cc UK spec manifold.  I am about 1/2 done
fitting the damn things, I just have been real busy.  Both Dan and
Mike have already done this with good results.
