Larry, that's what I'm running on my TR6, a set of ZS from an earlier TR4. 1 3/4, with the adjustment screw in the bottom of the bowl. Seem to work fine for me, and cost effective (cheap!) The bigges

The carbs that came on Sunbeam Alpines were 150 CD, 1 1/2" throttle bore. Using the 175 CD carbs 0n a TR-6 can certainly be done successfully, but be sure to change the mixture needles. Using the TR-

Hi, In any case, these needles seem to be a tad rich and I need to confirm that with a couple of chassis dyno runs. In the meantime, I'd appreciate any feedback on the matter. The following is an int

Oddly enough, when I called Joe C. and gave him my engine specs, he wasn't really able to suggest anything. I had seen a suggestion for the B1AR, so I bought those... Poking around a bit more on the

Interesting that the Jag needle is the preferred choice. When I was running carbs on my TR6 I made my own needles using the specs for a Jag 3.8 motor, my thinking was that I wanted my 6 to run like a

Is the shim stock used to make the diameter of the end larger? Please explain. There are lists and even a little Windows program for all the SU needles. Is similar data available for the Stromberg ne
