That's cool... I will stick with the original carb and put and air box on.

Hi.. sorry to start another thread on a similar subject.... but can you paint over the Bitumen on the floors? I am thinking, stone chip, truck bed liner or more Bitumen... I am going to put felt and rubber down so it's just for rust protection really.

I am thinking now I might buy some insulation felt and rubber mat on a sheet and cut it to fit... If I bitumen the floor to protect it, does it smell bad? I need to use the SJ quite soon after doing it.

I think Twiss meant HIF 38... Did it make a big difference? The stock carb is working fine at the moment, is it worth changing to an SU?

Chassis paint? I've just bought a tin of black and a tin of green so I can paint the floor and chassis black and my suspension components green... I made my own carpets in my old SJ out of black heavy duty carpet, and used waterproof carpet underlay as sound proofing, worked a treat! Kept it nice a...

tbh the main improvement of the SU is that the HIF44 is much more reliable than the carb fitted to 1.3 SJs. As the 410 carb is working I might save myself the hassle and keep it, they are pretty good carbs anyway Yes, it's working fine... Maybe i will just fit an air box for now.... and see how it is

Nice one... thank you! I shall check that out. I have been looking for an air box, but I am thinking I should go for an SU if I am messing about with it.

Hi... Quick question... If I fit an SU carb in my SJ410... Do I use the standard air box with it?
Cheers Lee

No... Norfolk. Scottie said he might have one... if he hasn't I will get back to you... I don't mind paying for postage.

Yeah... unfortunately someone has tried to get it off and got bored! The front is Ok... it's just the back which is kind of a mess... I might have to actually do some hard work...

Can you paint onto it then?
