sound like motorcycle carbies to me. operate slightly different to the SU and the needles/jets are set up according to motorcycle engine size.

Hitachi made SUs under licence?, they were used on the Datsun 240Z etc... also 180B SSS I think..
Work & look pretty much like an SU, dunno if needles fit, or not. :wink:
