Malcolm :
Moss P/N 370-795 is the rebuild kit for (2) AUC878 H6 carbs. It includes
needles and jets, sells for $80 (US). If you want to replace the shafts
and bushes, that will add $45 (US) for both carbs.
They also have P/N 698-010 which is just the gasket kit for one carb, for
$9 (US), basically everything you need except the needle, jet and float
valve.
IMO very little from the HS6 kit will fit an H6. The float valve, and
maybe a few of the gaskets, but you can buy a float valve and gasket kit
from Moss for $15 (US).
BTW, with NAFTA, you should pay no duty on items shipped from the US, and I
believe you'll find the shipping charges pretty minimal.
You can download a PDF of the Moss catalog from
http://mossmotors.com/cataloglayout/pdfs/tri/TRI.html
which makes an excellent parts book, even if you don't buy from them.
Section C has both H6 and HS6 carbs, so you can compare part numbers to
see which parts are the same between them.
I don't know what computer you are running, but there is a free PDF reader
(Adobe Acrobat Reader) available for most modern computers at
http://www.adobe.com/prodindex/acrobat/readstep.html#reader
It's available for Linux, IRIX, Solaris, MAC, AIX, HP-UX, Digital UNIX and
OS/2, as well as the inevitable WinDoze. (There are probably others ...)
There's even one written in Java.
