Hey, just after some info from an informed lot, can anyone tell me what model the twin preheat manifold comes off, is there only 1 type? Thanks in advance

Actually has anyone had a twin preheat manifold on anything but a 1600 is more the info that I need.

These dual preheat intake manifolds were fitted from 1974 on (1300, L and the '76 models).
