It usually easier fitting the late exhaust manifold, than adapting parts to fit the early type.
Here are pictures of an adaptor we have done for around the last 10 year.
We make them for 1 inch and 1 1/8 inch SU carbs.
No disrespect, but I think an 1 1/4 su is to big for standard manifolds on standard engines.

Probably the main reason why people want to keep the early manifold is because the later manifold stands out further for the exhaust pipe.
Hard to show in the picture.
But the is about 1/2 inch difference in fitting.
