Re: SU question

["Guy R Day" <grday@btinternet.com>]

My listing shows:
AUC 870 (F or R) was a H4 carb fitted to a 1957 -1962 Riley 1.5.
Standard needles used were:      HA(weak)      AD (standard)     AR (rich)

The same listing shows:
AUC 871 (F and R) was a HD8 fitted to the 3.7 Litre 1958 Aston Martin DB4 
fitted only with a UJ needle.  This one may be classed as rare......  :-) 
(Perhaps 500 made?)

25 years ago I would have known that without having to look it up <smile>
