If its Sidedraught Webers "DCOE" that you have in mind, yes, you will
need a special manifold, which would now only be available from England.
Several months ago, Ramon Spontelli with the assistance of several
other Alpine enthusiasts, had a very small group of manifolds built
for DCOE Webers.

These manifolds were promptly sold out.

Perhaps the manufacturer "TWM" could make another run, but I
wouldnt reccomend them unless they take care of a variety of
design oversights and defects on the next lot.

If this type manifold were available, You could expect to pay around
$800
for manifold and two new 40 DCOEs.
