Greg - sounds like the same advice I got from an ex-racer/factory
mechanic I know.
Mark - I suspect that there a great many more SU's mouldering away in
storage than there are Weber DCOEs, hence a great number of us eagerly
anticipate your findings. Anybody got a single inch and a half SU for
sale or swap (anticipating positive results and getting my query in
before the rush).
Does anyone know if the manifold in question would work with a GT6 or are
there clearance problems with the front carb? Also any data on needles
and jets (just when I thought I had a two carb setup sussed)?
thanx
