I am looking for 12/12 type down draught inlet manifold and carburettor for my M type.
I have been told a Austin seven inlet manifold can be adapted to fit, can anyone comment on this?

Derek,
I have a spare 1 1/8” Downdraught SU carb, together with float bowl,which is of later period than M type, but it should do the job. Located in Cheshire to view. Photo available. £40 + postage.

Hi Derek,
Austin seven fits with slightest modification, I have done 2 of them. If you decide to go up to 1 1/4" su I can probably supply enough bits, but would need to check.

Very nice, Sam. Is that 2M1168 perchance?

It is indeed 2M1168. The high carburettor needs a fuel pump which in turn has allowed the petrol tank to be more safely mounted at the back.

| Brilliant thanks for this. I am trying to find out which model of Austin Seven had this manifold fitted, maybe an Ulster or type 65. Will continue my quest and report back |

| I've no actual personal knowledge on this but my Austin 7 book by Rinsey Mills says these were fitted to the 65, 75, Nippy & Speedy models (not the Ulster as that used a steel manifold) |

Derek. Have you tried Austin Repro in Dorset ? Willie MacKenzie makes many parts for Austins.
