The HIF carbs flow more air - size for size than the HS carbs.

A single 1.75" SU is superior in almost all respects than a pair of 1.5" SUs 
- see Vizard for the technical explanation or just try it.  For the spec of 
your engine the single 1.75" will be superior.

<< Question for the List -
 I am planning on using a pair of SU HIF4 carbs with newly built 1380 in my 
 Bugeye. Will be daily driver when finished (next summer?), lots of So Calif 
 freeway driving. Engine has GT6 head, 268 cam, LCB manifold, etc, etc. 
 
 I have not seen this combination mentioned in any discussions. My thoughts 
 are that the HIF4s will flow more air than a pair of HS4 carbs, but less 
than 
 dual HS6s (all out race). Are there problems I am not aware of? Any comments 
 or advise will be appreciated.
