I did the SU Coversion, bolting up my ZS KNs by just using 2 of the bolt
holes.   I wondered if there was an issue as the (breathing holes?) in the
filter to carb plate don't really match with the SU carb's plumbing.
Admittedy I don't completely understand how my carbs work.

The bolt alignment
got quite silly when I tried to add short ram pipes inside the filters.  I
took the ram pipes off.  Mine are ram pipes, not stub stacks.  I understand
the shorter the pipe, the further any additional power is produced up the rev
range.   A bit longer is better for street.

I suppose the best solution is to
get the 21/2" or so  KNs made specifically for HS6.   APT appears to offer a
complete line of KNs for our cars.   I thinks there's something in their
catalog about an offset bolt pattern that's useful for using ram pipes.
