Has anyone tried bolting a rubber flange adaptor (like this http://www.amalcarb.co.uk/ProductDetail.aspx?Id=37395) to a Mark 1 carb? The carb could then be used with the curved alloy flange adaptors for Amal Mark 2s which would make fitting as difficult as tightening a jubilee clip, and rubber mounts the carbs. All the parts are available off the shelf. Would the whole setup fit into the same space as the standard manifolds and carbs?
