thanks Dave
I did know the 3 used SU's and the 6 used Zenith's.
had I been any
place close to home I could have lifted the bonnet on the 6 in the garage and
taken a look.
but that would have taken effort and wait until tomorrow.

The answer, as I
like to say, is "it depends."  That was the case on my 
original TR6 carbs but
earlier and later model carbs did have both ports 
drilled and tapped
(actually not tapped per se but with a tube pressed in).

But using the TR3 as
a basis point is problematic.  They had different 
carbs and they didn't have
to meet emissions.  Heck, even the TR6's varied 
enough to keep things
confusing.
