Thanks Bob. Actually, something can be done about the SU carbs. On
both my BN4 and not-Healey I have put fuel injectors inside the carb
dashpots and hidden the wiring so it still looks original. Runs just
like with carbs except far better fuel economy, no fuel boil-up when
turning off a hot engine and no running-on. Only wish the BN4 had the
later head.

Andy.
