I nearly went down that route. I even bought a set of GSXR600 carbs and airbox.

Search for a guy I think is called Geko Cycles. He show a step by step. Very pro I recall. I was planning on two steel plates welded together with four tubes linking them.

Here you go, I've found it for you.

Yes, ive been planing on motorbike carbs on my 1.6 8v sami for a while now. ive pretty much made the manifold now, only took me 6 months, I will try and get some pictures up.

Theres a company called bogg brothers who are experts and will make you a perfect manifold (at a price)

I know that some people have managed 100hp with bike carbs out of a 970cc Nissan engine, so what HP are you aiming at? 160hp in a Zuk would be InSAnE!
