Sadly, there are some parts which even they no longer carry for some of the legacy carbs with which we are all familiar (like the VHB30's, for example, for which some components seem impossible to source at this time), but they do carry pretty much all that is available to be carried, and some parts which some would have you believe are 'unobtainium'.

Plus they are always helpful, reasonably priced (in my opinion), quick to deliver and jolly helpful and knowledgeable when contacted.  [disclaimer: I have no connection with this firm, other than being consistently happy to have dealt with them].

I was thinking Paul, do you think it maybe worth doing a compression test on your cylinders ?

It might be that all is not well down below, and that could effect your MPG I would have thought. 

Just a thought.

Well got a pair of carb tops now thanks to Phil and Tarquin. Should finish getting the Tuono back together this week and then I'll start on the Le Mans. I think any further improvement in fuel consumption is mostly going to come from adjustments to the right wrist, but thats going to be hard to modify.
