I think the 6 is for 6/8 ths the old imperial carbies were named with the number of 1/8 ths they were over an inch
so
HS2 = 1 1/4 inch carbie
HS4 = 1 1/2 inch carbie
HS6 = 1 3/4 inch carbe
Correct me if I am wrong

Are these carbs one and the same? I see them listed together all over the place, can anyone shed any light? Thanks! |

HS6 (if that is what you're talking about) is the 1.75" SU with the float on the side like a normal Mini SU (but bigger). HIF44 is 1.75" with the float on the bottom. Both the same size and both use the same needles and stuff. |

HIF6 and HIF44 are the same just in metric and imperial measurements, they do use different needles and springs internally too, the piston is even on a ball bearing to assist in a smoth slide etc. |

So is one better than the other? Also, 44mm ~= 1.75", what the hell is 6 for? Can anyone tell me what he HIF bit stands for? |
