intake manifold for dual carb to fit R4F4

[reidalpine]

Hi gang... URGENT.
Anyone sitting on an intake-manifold (for dual carb) from a R 1224+TL+GTL To be fitted to a 1289cc 810-26 R5GTL-head...
-have tried fitting the intake-manifold from a R12TS which I though was identical to above,but it seems the body of the R12-one is "lower" so won't clear the headers....The boxy section in the middle of it sticks too deep by about 10-15mm,so interfers with one exhaust-pipe.
-The orig.pt number for the one I need seems to be #7701455754 Will buy or swap for other R4-goodies -R.

BLOOPER-ALARM!!! DISREGARD post over....(after measurements...won't fit either)

-What I AM looking for is the intake-manifold off of a Renalt 8 S. -HAS to be from the S! ports a bit staggered but can be fairly easily corrected.. I don't have access to part-no.but thinks there is only one version of it for the 8S so Any info/assistance Greatly appreciated!

PS: could the Caravelle-manifold be the same as the R8S ?? (but it didn't have a dual-carb did it?) -Others?? -R.

Not much response on here -but luckily solved elsewhere.
I now have the intake-manifold I need to fit the new headers,dual Webers and all so Roffen will be ready for some more action this summer.
If anyone interested I can post some pixes of intallation-there seems to be lot of interest in saving fuel and oil on here lately-My stand? Use as much of the stuff as you possibly can as the oil in the ground or seabed lubricate tectonic-plates and cause land-slides all over..We don't need another Tsunami now do we??
Forum seem to be getting all (too) serious lately-or is it just me??Where's all the Lord Stansburys gone-surely you're not admitted to the coconut-factory (yet)are you? -R.
