SU query

Featured Replies

I have a pair of Birmingham manufactured SUs on a 240 manifold. Their serial numbers are AUD 425F and AUD 425R.

Any one know what they are origionally off.

I have been unable to find that model number in the SU book. Why do you ask? FWIW F & R stand for Front and Rear. Sorry I can't be of more help.

Thanks Bruce.

I wondered why someone would bother putting these on a 240 manifold, unless it was a replacement for the flat tops.

Some good information there Blue. When I am fully awake I will read it fully. Thanks.

These MGB may be an oddity at 1 3/4" and are HS6 an equivalent to the 46mm Hitachis. The Burlin book I have shows the 70s MGBs ran HS4s or 38mm carbs on the 1800. Right thru that series the SU numbers I see are all right in that range. I just don't see AUD 425.....

Thanks Guys. Looks as though they are 1970 MGB

The link Austin memories is interesting Blue. Lots of good information.
