2' SU Carbs on B20 120-130

posted by  someone claiming to be Ron Kwas on  Sat Apr 6 11:57 CST 2002 [RELATED]

Vortex;

According to the book Tuning SU carburetters, Published by Speedsport Motorbooks, ISBN85113-072-0, the 1 3/4 HS6 were suitable for use from 1500-3000cc displacement engines...and as a reference the HS8s were suitable from 1750-3500cc...you can draw your own conclusions! ...and maybe this is why its not a commonly occuring installation...but if you happen to have some Jag carbs and have this insatiable need to bodge something up, have fun and let us know how it works out...I bet it would look pretty impressive under the hood! I have a manifold you would need to open up...e-mail me off-line if you want it.

Cheers
