Hot Herald Engine (displacing a svelte 948 ccs) seeks to establish
intimate relationship with two (preferably related) SU Carburettors.
Truth to tell, I'm already committed to two I have in my "stable" but
I (the HHE's SO (spitfire's owner)) am really searching for info on
the SU carbs I have for this engine.
The carbs themselves are SU H2 models (1.25 in throat, manifold bolt
holes located one above the other) but I can't seem to find repair
parts or information about these. It would appear that the MG
T-series and MGA may have used carbs like these, though H4 looks more
likely. 948 Heralds used H1s. Where would these have been used?
A search of triumph, spitfire, and mg archives, a Lycos on the
internet, and some Rimmer, Moss, and other catalogs don't turn up any
good hits.
I did order the books from Burlen (their parts and maintenance books);
I hope I beat the rush. If anyone has any other good stuff to add,
I'll be listening. And I would be pleased to put together a summary
if I get enough requests for one.
TIA, and all.
Donald.
