same flange as a14/a15 but ports are huge, from wikipedia the only thing i can find that comes close is the a14 gx but gx ports are still a bit smaller than these.

I'd say it's for an A12GX motor. They have bigger ports than the standard A14/15 heads.

that guy on trademe auction reckons his manifold is for a15, kind of went back around on my question, this looks like the only one redline make for a14/a15

and trademe guys manifold has 30 x 40mm ports, maybe you can put these on, thought atomised fuel would pool if ports were not exact match.

thanks for your pictures, do all the a15 heads have the multi stud pattern to fit both types of manifolds?

found a picture on an a15 h89 head with 36mm ports,

I'm not usre that ALL a15 heads do, but it's not a mission impossible to drill and tap the extra hole.........
