[Healeys] Fwd: HD8 dashpot damper part #s

[Perry]

 The carbs I have on hand have the most common, and perhaps the correct piston rod  AUC8112.  Also found AUC8114.  My factory 3000/BJ8 parts book covering the HD8 carbs has conveniently disappeared for the moment so I can not verify what part the factory called for.  The weight of the piston body (very small weight at the end of the damper rod) should not have a bearing on the operation as it can only move vertically 1/16 inch and is otherwise fixed in place. I checked the diameter of the piston body on several and they all appear to be the same. The diameter would seem to be much more important for proper carb operation. 
I had asked the SU dealer in England for guidance for use of the different numbered parts but have not heard back, thus this convoluted email to the list.

>From the various responses I received it seems that AUC8112 is the correct damper for the HD8s.  The main difference between the dampers that I can observe appears to be the size of the very small weight at the end of the damper rod.

I have 3 sets of HD8 carburetors all with different dashpot dampers.  AUC8112, AUC8114 and AUC8115.  What is the correct damper for a BJ8?
