It's kind of easy to remember the difference between H6 and HS6, because
the HS6 has a short body (presumably, S for Short). It goes (stock) on an
intake with longer runners than the earlier version, with an overall length
from the engine to the outside face of the carb about the same for both
setups.

My '67 +4 came with HS6's and a long intake manifold. Now it has HS6's and
a short intake manifold and K&N filters all fitting nicely under the stock
hood as described more fully in "The Morgan Bedside Reader."

One of these days I'm going to mount the twin Webers sitting in my garage...
