It depends on how original you want the car to look!

I like SU carbs, (basically they are a bucket with a hole) and with the variable jet can be made to perform how you want them too, I normally find the economical too!

Mark,
The car ran much better after we fitted the SU carb, I have one on mIne and really like it.

It seems to be an interesting argument, I am having a look on the net about this SU carbs... can I have some additional info?
It is an easy swap?

Andrea,
I used a carb and manifold from a Reliant Robin three wheeler.

probably easier to fit a r5 carb and manifold it will then breathe a lot better and go better !

Now I have a solex 32DIS on the 956 and a solex 32EISA in the 845... but I had a look on ebay and those carb look quite expensive, so I think I will keep mines!
