| Just read the same article--wish it had talked about the Laycock deNormanville 
O/D the car probably had (excepting the mention in one of the photo captions of 
an 'electric overdrive'). How the heck did he get 2.5M+ miles on THAT???!!! 
Musta used MT-90 ;) 
Anyway, it appears the P1800 used HS6 SU carbs:

I just read an article in the latest Auto Restorer magazine about a guy 
and his 2.5+ million mile Volvo P1800S. One of the pictures showed the 
engine compartment, and what looked like SU HD8 carbs. Are they 
interchangeable with BJ8 carbs?
