I've read about this sort of conversion a while ago.

You'll need to 'manufacture' something for the exhaust as the Series downpipe won't fit the 2.5, some sort of combination of ninety/oneten manifold and series exhaust. You may want a larger exaust than standard series though.

Also you'll need some sort of conversion from throttle linkage to throttle cable for the carb.

Above that, not sure, but that should get you going a little :)

Hi
Just fit the 2 1/4 manifolds to the 2.5 ,they will bolt straight on. Then use standard 2 1/4 exhaust.
