Hi All

I was wondering what needle I should run in my 1.5 SU Carby. I am getting an overhaul kit for it and wanted to make sure i get the right needle.

The engine is a relatively standard 1100 with a mildly ported and worked 202 head with a standard exhaust system.

Thanks in advance!

Matt

Bring your car to the hotbricks dyno day and find out! Providing it already runs of course....Otherwise, get real advice! (read- not from me)
