You might want to try stiffer springs in the HIF6's. SU's develop more bottom end torque than other carbies because they atomize fuel so much better than fixed venturi carbies, loss of torque would indicate that the spring might be too soft.

Are HS8 allowed? They work well too. I got a pair from an old Rover 2000. You would find the Rover setup interesting as they use softmounts & springs.

I would guess alternate manifolds aren't allowed, I always wanted to try SU's on a Lynx 180 degree manifold but never got around to it.
