Pinto manifold

Hi, first post to this group, having just bought a lowcost rolling chassis with engine and box and a pile of bits.Engine is a 2 litre pinto injection, and it is obvious that the injection manifold is not going to fit under a bonnet, so I have decided to make this a LPG (gas) powered car. The idea I have is to take the injection throttle body assembly and to fix it somehow to a modified downdraught carb manifold. This will give plenty of room above the throttle body to fix a gas mixer ring and then use a flexible right angled rubber pipe to a chassis mounted air filter.The problem is all the manifolds I know of (in my very limited knowledge of Fords), are made for dual choke carbs which will not readily adapt to the single large bore of the throttle body. Does anybody know of a manifold that might fit?
