Re: SU carbs for GT6

[Scott Kohl <rpage@wvi.com>]

I believe that the answer to the float chamber angle is in the rubber 
spacer/washer between the chamber and the carb body.  If you compare 
the ones on the TR4 carbs with those off of a vertically-mounted 
chamber application (Triumph 2500/2.5,I think) you should notice a 
difference in the arrangement of the projections on the spacer.  There 
is an ear on the carb body above the hole for the thru bolt, to which 
indexes a projection on the spacer.  The thickness of the projection 
determines the angle at which the chamber is held.  This should be the 
only change necessary.  Just as an interesting aside, do you know what 
"S.U." stands for?
