RE: 1.5" vs 1.75" SU's

I have a mani for the SU's with a casting mark of, "JAPAN 210". Works great, I am concerned though when I am ready to put the 46's on and, like Julian said, there is only two mounting bolts on the manifold to the four on the carbs.

I've got 1.75" (yes, that's correct, they're British) SU's on my L-18, too
much carb, I know, but I got a deal on them and my stock POS was falling
apart. Anyway, they're bolted to a manifold that is the same size. The only
markings on the manifold are "JAPAN 220". I got the carbs, manifold, heat
shields and a custom air box that clears the dual master cylinder off the
shelf in a JY. The only identifying info on them was a tag that said "DATSUN
L20B".
