- My understanding was that the only reason the Healeys went to the tri-carb configuration was because, they would then be able to fit three Webers on their rally cars. Three carburetors was three carb

- Ooops! let me try that again. I was assuming HS6s on the tri-carb, but they are only 1.5 inch carbs. By my calculation the twin HD6 carbs would have an area of 4.8 square inches, so the three HS4s st
