1071 Jets and Needles

Post by miniman2 »

I have a 1071cc 'S' running on HS4 SU carbs, I would like to replace them with HS2's as that's what it should have. Can anyone give me the correct needle number for these as fitted to that size engine in 1964. All other components are standard - cam, std head valves etc. Regards Chris.

According to my books, they're H6 as STD. 63-64

Hi perhaps I should have said I was fitting SU HS2's as originals are like rocking horse poo! regards Chris.

Many thanks for that will see if I can source some for my carb rebuild. SU will be my first port of call. Chris.
