[Healeys] Initial mixture setting on H6 carb

[rct2bnc at aol.com]

Mike,
My SU workshop manual for HD cabs shows: lowering the jet 2.5 turns. It also reminds you to first center the jet. Also, it recommends the slow-running valve be unscrewed 3.5 turns for the initial run-up to temperature.
I just redid my set of HD6 on my BN7 and these settings worked first time.

Subject: [Healeys] Initial mixture setting on H6 carb

Following a rebuild I am about to reinstall the H6 carbs on my 100.  The mixture nuts are presently run all the way up to richest position and because the nuts are somewhat difficult to access I would like to get the initial mixture setting correct before mounting up the carbs.  
Four full turns down (TOWARDS LEAN) sticks in my mind as being the recommended starting point but I am not at all sure and would appreciate input here.
TIA--Michael Oritt_______________________________________________
