Following the thread on tuning HD8s I realise that everyone has their own
little differences in how they tune SUs. However, I have had a little book
called "Tuning SU carburetters" since 1968 when it was first published by one
of the then great UK car magazines "Cars and Car Conversions." I have followed
the instructions over many years of Minis, Metros, Rovers, Triumphs and more
recently the Healey and found it to give good results. I was about to scan my
copy and offer it around, but thought I would check the web first. Someone
beat me to it at the following link
http://www.bmcno.org/manuals/Tuning%20SU%20Carburetters.pdf
It has a full set
of needle charts and lists all the british car applications for the fifties
and sixties up to 1967, as well as the strip down and tuning instructions.
If
this publication is already known to everyone I apologise.
