Joe Curto sent BCC needles for my HS6 conversion as he didn't have any BAEs in 
stock.   My carbs were out of a UK Triumph sedan and came with BBTs I recall.   
Car is thirstier, but maybe that's more the early PI profile cam.
 
If your carbs are from a Volvo check your float bowl angles carefully - bowls 
must be straight up and down on installation.   A buddy had issues installing 
these on his 6 - fuel leaked out the top.  Joe has the parts to fix this.
 
You can get different spring weights - red or yellow tipped springs.  Someone 
else may be able to comment if this makes any difference.
