The original Alfa-Six saloon also had carburettors (six single throat 
Del'Ortos as I recall). It might be easier to find one of those 
manifolds than it would be to find a manifold from a South African 3.0 
liter GTV-6. BTW, you are aware that the S.A. 3.0 liter was a different 
engine than was the subsequent Milano Verde (Alfa 75) 3.0 liter V-6 are 
you not? Don't know if it would make any difference about the intake 
manifold, but I think I'd find out before purchasing a manifold off 
that engine were I you. Just a thought....
