The little tags attached to the fuel bowl screw was used to tell you the particular carb's application (ie. jet and needle combination). Nice for originality.

I think for Cooper S it was 146R and 146L?? I'm probably wrong however with the number, I'm only going off memory...

If you get on to the Burlen fuel systems website, sometimes you can punch the number in and see what car the carb was originally used on. It doesn't always work for Australian spec carbs though.

I haven't used anyone yet, but a while ago I was googling it and these guys look like they would be alright.
