Mark,
The bushes may need to be reamed, depending on the carb.
I had a set of HS6's done by the list's own Brian Schlorff of
Power British. Nice job and very reasonably priced (better
pricing than Nissongers or Apple Hydraulics). Unfortunately, I
am at home and don't have his contact information here.
