I will have a look at that in a min. I did see that last night as it happens I'm wondering if you can run any carb turbo'd. As my old mk1 ran a su hif44e carb from a 2.0ltr montego and went like stink. Wouldn't mind doing it but using one carb per 2 cylinders

Depending on power output, maybe no point in two carbs and more hassle to setup.

And n/a carbs can be used or modified to a degree, but the proper turbo'd version is better as the dashpot chamber has a proper seal on it.

Burlen do a lot of SU stuff, but I'd doubt there is much support for the turbo carb

Or maybe Avonbar etc

But Metro, Maestro, Montego turbo, all carbs are usable.

Could do no harm to ask here too
