Carb question

Post by Vegard »

I've got a SA1071 engine with a 544 camshaft, worked head etc.
At the moment I'm running a single HS6, but I don''t really want to.

I've got the choice between twin HS2s and twin H4s.

Would the HS2s be too small?

depends if youre going to rev it :) hs2's would be ok, but i should imagine there would be more top end with the H4's

if you thin down the butterfly spindels on 11/4"s there as good as 11/2's in most instances.

I'm thinking of fitting an SW5 camshaft, so I guess the Hs2s would be great over time. I don't rev it, it's a street car. I'm getting lazy ;)

If you are fitting an SW5 then its the same engine as my Sprint. It works fine with 2 x HS2's but if I had my time again it would be 544 & twin H4's if they fitted under the bonnet.
