[T3] Darkside Engine Advice

["Steven Cooper" <steven.cooper@optusnet.com.au>]

<x-flowed>I am considering buying a rebuilt 1776 with twin 36ICT webers to install in 
my AT fasty.  The engine is built in a universal case with a reground crank, 
new pistons and barrels and rebuilt heads with new valves. Does anybody have 
any advice on this combination, specifically:
1) Is it possible to find inlet manifolds air cleaners suitable to install 
the carbs under the engine lid of a type 3?  If so, how difficult are they 
to come by?
2) Can you get linkages suitable for use in a type 3? Again, how difficult 
are they to find
3) Are they good carbs for this application?  They have apparently been 
jetted for a 1776.

Are there any other questions I should ask the seller.  Fortunately I know 
the previous owner of the engine quite well, and would therefore trust the 
information given.
