I have a manifold that I can't find in any of the previous posts.
Can someone identify with numbers:

Hey Hippy!
No, I don't know it's origins. But I believe Kevin G is right and it is a 20 degree manifold, and thus is non Mini. Might be good for parts and pieces on a mini, but the manifold guarantees it's going to interfere with the bulkhead.
Save it for trades maybe? By the way, does the tag show L and R anywhere?
Best, MSH

for theminimark
Did you find out what the 12G 242 manifold came off?
I have one with the same casting numbers and two 1/14 su carbs on with the numbers AUD 691 on a tag attached.
Looked them up on SU web site but nada.

If the carb angle is 20°, it's definitely off a Sprite/Midget, not any east/west motor (they are all 30°.

looks like the number of variations could be endless

Thanks, but not what I wanted to hear. (don't have any use for Sprite stuff) For the record, it has a 19-20 degree carb mounting angle, 6" port centers, ring type locaters; no spacers though.

Steve-that could be a sprite/midget item considering the full complement of emission system ports, spacers on the carb side of the manifold and length of manifold between the carb and the head. However, I had not noticed the firing order cast in there before.

I was thinking about this thread as asilverstein's 997 is trying to come together and the correct manifold wasn't around. I looked at 2 manifolds I could find. One is a 1275 s manifold, 12A661 P cast in and AEG 347 stamped into the balance tube. Both bosses are drilled-crankcase vent and power brake.
I also have a BA62357AEG490 manifold. I imagine the 6 is supposed to be an 8. It is a twin 1.5" or 1.75" manifold.

Chuck,
Yes, I saw the new listings this morning on Mark's site. There's some good pictures there, some more recent manifolds. (More recent meaning only 30 years old instead of 40!)
I got sidetracked developing a chart of A-type gears, but will try to get back to the manifold chart. It's a case of Mini-ADD; Oooh, look, an old gearbox over there.
