Call Joe Curto (a/k/a/ Mr. SU) @ 718-762-SUSU. He should be able to hook you
up. His e-mail address is joecurto@aol.com
While he doesn't carry every needle he may have a few that are very similar.
Joe is probably the most informative and experienced SU guy in the states.
The last time I was there Z-Therapy called him. NO, Joe doesn't do Jap SUs
which I have bugged him about for many years.
FWIW, I am using a KAL portable emission analyzer to see how the needles
affect my a/f ratio (along with Colortune to get my initial baseline) and
then tape it down and go for a ride with the sniffer stuck inside the
exhaust pipe. Maybe not as sensitive as an O2 sensor it does serve its
purpose.
I bought it used for $100 locally but the are frequently available on eBay.
I found out that my needles (RH) are almost perfect for my stroker although
they do run lean on over-run or deceleration.
Moreover, if anyone wants a chart for SU needles here is a website that
provides all the measurements for hundreds of needles:

2L SUs are .100 needles and 1600 needles are .90 needles
