Default 1st Gen Mugen Carbs

A friend of mine recently came into possession of these carbs for a 1st gen civic. Are they rare? They seem to have 'Mugen' written all over them Looks like they have never been used and still has the originial air cleaner.

Here's some pics:







He was thinking about putting them in this 1979 Civic he built years ago:

Damn those are sweet! Do not get rid of them! Those will be a nice performance upgrade for the stock engine and sound sweet.

wow! If those are authentic Mugen parts, those are extremely rare. Back in the 1970's, Mugen was focused mainly on Honda dirtbikes only and did not expand into commercial car parts until the Honda City Turbo was released. I've seen a few anecdotes that Hiro had worked on a few 1st gen Civic racecars, so maybe?
