Do you mean actual SUs, or the Aisan HF40D carbs (basically an SU copy) that came on the Colt AIIGS ? As per pic below ...

Not sure if the mounting pattern is the same ?

There is a manifold for the Aisans (although not common as they were never released here with that carb setup)

Carbs above are for sale, btw ... but I don't have a manifold for them. I may be able to source a set complete with manifold though, if you are genuinely interested ? PM me if you are fair dinkum about wanting a set

HF40Ds are the go IF you have all the parts and some spare seals as well AND you havent done too much to the motor AND you want something original. In my experience you'd best buy a couple of pairs and build one good set. Parts are made of unobtainium. SUs are more adaptable.
BTW, there should be isolators between the carbs and manifold, and a pair of vacuum operated butterflies (not pictured). Make sure the seals at the bottom of the float bowl actually seal. Also I think there are 2 different models with different flanges to the isolators, so make sure you match them up. Also damper valves that seem to work fine on the bench may not work when fitted in the carb. When you get them working they sound COOL. (But different from DCOEs)
Ask me how I know :roll:
