No problems ;D What made you go for Nikki's  Bigger single SU - normal. Twin SU's next step. Webber(s) if you want wild. ! but as I say, its not my speciallity jc |

i remember crawling up the m5 at 40 mph, with my mini stuttering and missins like hell, with the lorrys overtaking me leaning on the horn.
then mr spamspeed sorted it on the rolling road
i did put a stage 1 on it and a twin d.t.m.
yes it cost £180 fot the tune up, BUT i shot home the long way
thro ross on wye to newport at 100mph plus, i tell you he is the man! da man!
i did have a speed camera raydar jammer tho,
53 bhp on the read out! thats better than some 1275s

Aren't nikki carbs mainly down draughts?
If so, your better off with twin SU's for BHP/Torque. Nikki carbs were just an alterntive.
If you want more BHP, add more carbs. or go weber. Nikki carbs are good, but they don't really add much more power then a single SU.
