Some 2.8 Granadas ran on a Carb. 1977 to 85.

You're best bet would be to search ebay, I found one fairly quickly when I needed one a few years ago when fitting a 2.8 Cologne into my old Sierra. As said above there were plenty of mk2 Granadas fitted with carb'd cologne engines, I actually used a 2.3 manifold on mine which has slightly smaller ports than the 2.8 one but then opened the ports out with a grinding stone bit in a drill.
Another thought, are any banger racers near you, they like Granadas and may have some parts stashed away that they may let go if you ask nicely!
