The HS8s I added had a stand-off that used the mounting studs and you then
could hook a spring from the throttle shaft to the stand off using the
standard SU springs. These bits came off a Rover 2000TC. I think the HD8's
have the same hole on the throttle shaft arms to hook a spring too. I am a
firm believer that each carb should have it's own return spring that is
independent of the linkage. I also have one spring in the standard TR6 place
(between the firewall and arm) and then one on the pedal. The car is in
storage in Colorado or I'd take a picture of it for you.

Subject: Carb Return Spring
Well, I got the TR6 fired up tonight with the new HD8's. It runs, so that's
a good thing, right? Before I head to an autox on Sunday I want to hook up
some kind of positive throttle return, preferably directly to the throttle
shafts, not the linkage. Does anybody have a good set up on their car that
they
could recommend? A picture would be great if one was available.
Thanks,
