I converted my 71 to SU's early last summer. I found that they transformed the driving experience of the car. It idles smoother, it comes back to the same idle speed every time I stop at a stop sign,

Jack, I ran SU's for a while on my TR6 #44 and ran fine until I had a problem with something in the carbs, but that's another story. I used the HIF6's or HIF 44's on the car and they were very easy t

I've heard so many people badmouth Strombergs, and until 1997, I was one of them! My 74 TR6 had the usual (plus more) Stromberg problems. Couldn't pass CA smog, popped and f**rted on trailing thrott

Thanks Shane..... That's a breathe of fresh air in the Stromberg Barn of Bad Smells. Sometime in the 70s I rebushed my worn shafts and rebuilt these TR4A Z-S. The car was dismantle and I set the carb

If you have the early TR4 Z-S carbs and look at them they sit real tall in the area between the throat and the top of the suction chamber. They also have a funny choke on them, a flap that rises up i

I think the early TR4/TR4A Z-S would be a candidate for conversion on the TR6. I like their simplicity. What is a Tall Chamber Z-S, Charly? Thanks. Joe (A) == unsubscribe/change address requests to m
