Don't be overwhelmed by what you found in your SU's. Despite their
malevolent reputation, these are very straightforward, even
ingenious (IMHO) devices that run without complaint once set up
properly.<br>
<br>
I have quite a boneyard of SU parts of various states of
serviceability, and you are welcome to pick and choose whatever
you can use.<br>
<br>
If you decide to have your carbs professionally rebuilt, I have a
terrific guy to recommend:<br>

I had Bob rebuild the carbs on my Aston Martin and if I remember
correctly, my XK140, and he did a very expert reasonably priced
jobs.<br>
<br>
Hope this helps,<br>

fuel leak (dribbling out of the bottom of the front carb).
Turned out to be a perished (cracked and crispy) jet
diaphragm on the front carb (). Checked the rear, it
wasn't a whole lot better; but it hadn't actually broken
yet, like the front. This deep into it, I might as well
renew a few wear items (needles, seats, float lever arms,
gaskets, etc.).</div>
