Re: SU Carb Value
SU carb elbow adaptor about £15. SU carbs go from about £35 to £75 depending on condition and setup.AshR1 wrote:got an old su carb and mount from my old engine, it was a bit tatty and had some cable ties holding it together but still worked ok, anybody know the value of it if its worth selling or keeping it?

That's an old HS style carb, most people want HIF carbs.

Re: SU Carb Value
Its just an H carb actually
The HS carb has an external fuel hose connecting the float chamber to the carb...
