Bob Kramer....

Mikuni carburetors???  I have NO IDEA what you are referring to......

Don't worry... I'm going to build two manifolds for BOTH setups... just got the 
cars (TR6-GT6-Spitfire) situated yesterday. I think I'll send my SU's to Joe 
Curto... isn't that his name... the king of SU's? I've got the receipt where Bob 
Davis had them built years back. I'm going to ask him about the miss-matched jet 
issue and see if I can get a selection of needles and jets that I can play with.

I have to say,with deep sincerity, your commitment to our marque and your 
patience and guidance (and loaner parts) with everyone in our little Texas 
Triumph F.o.T. camp at T.W.S. last weekend was very much appreciated. It kind of 
reminded me of a dad hoovering over all his kids making sure our bicycles were 
safe and our wheels wouldn't fall off. 

Although I didn't get in but two laps this past weekend fiddling with 
carburetors once again, the camaraderie and the friendships built and lasting, 
truly is as much fun and enjoyment as the actual racing.
Thanks Bob ... honored to be your friend and running buddy..
