I'll leet Nigel answer this one Cap'n but ....
If you are talking about the plate I think you are, then according to what I have seen, and backed up by Horler, the plate was rectangular on all cars up to the 1275, at which point it became oval. I am sure that I will now be corrected as I am probably wrong!
On another subject, I took the Cap'n's advice and bought the book on engines by Vizard. A fascinating read. I will be undertaking some of those mods. My aim is to look original on the outside but be more efficient underneath. I am applying this statement to the engine, of course.
My questions.
Has anyone on the list experience of making the changes he suggests to SU carbs to make them flow more efficiently?
This one has probably been covered zillions of times .. but is there a good electronic set up that can be used but not seen?
Finally, is there anywhere in the South West of the UK where there is a known good dyno & operator? (or even South)
