i am not an expert, but all 1600 drivers had the ruber gasket/plate to mount the carb on.

also, the pic shows a weber carb i think, that is why the k&n is sat differently.

like i say, i'm no expert though

by looking and that and i'm definitely not an expert.

The k and n could/should go horizontal as thenthe oil reather hose would be an easier fit.

yeah thats a weber, can tell from that spring at the back, on a pierburg the filter would point to the drivers wing
