Would appreciate some advice please:

I have a set of twin SUs. They came with the car but were never used on it. Does anyone know what they are from? They both have number '4468' printed on them. I intend on selling them so thought it best to know what I'm selling first :lol:

They arent 2 inch SUs,they look like 1 1/2 or 1 1/4s.

They will be off some 4 cylinder pommy shitbox,an MG or the like...

They seem to be 1 and a half inches.

Was looking in the 'Technical' section of that website (under SU carbs) and it seems to have an engine flange of a HS2 carb but an intake flange of a HS6 carb :econfused:

Might just search the uk ebay and see if I can find anything similar.

Cheers guys.
