Twin 40 Webber’s for Fiat x1/9

[bumblefrog]

Hi,
Does anyone know if twin 40 DCNF Webber’s fit under the engine lid of the series 1 Fiat x1/9 1300?

I had 36 DCNFs in my 1500 and that seemed close, but then the block is higher...but looking around a bit I found this thread with the claim:

'I had a set of 40 DCNFs on my '74, and they fit just fine under the standard 1300 engine cover, even with the rain tray. It had at the time an ITG air cleaner, so your results may vary if you used a taller version.'

From the first post on page 6 of this thread.

There are also differen manifolds so I guess this can influence the fitment as well.
