Yes, you can get DCOE manifolds for a 2T but I doubt they're available new any more. Try eBay perhaps?

redline still have adaptors and cable kits to suit norbie
i havent got the link - BUT if you search for redline manifolds " on google - youll get to them
the solexes share the same pattern as weber 45's i believe ..
A pair of their 2t head to weber 45 sidedraft adaptors and a weber cable kit should get the solexes running on a 2t in theory ..
expect to pay upwards of 400 dollars for the adaptors + kit though

thr adapter shouldn't be illegal, BUT i'd make it out of a nice piece of 12mm alloy...me and my mate made one of these up but it was out of 6mm alloy plate so no good.
other thing you could do is get the stock 2TG solexs - remove the carbs and take it to a metal place and get them to TIG alloy to it where the bolts need to be, then, surface the whole lot.
