SU needles for high altitude
Hi Whitworth Heads,
For my stock XPAG engine, what needles should I install for operation at two
to three thousand meters altitude? Any idea who carries them?
No, not attaching wings, going to GoF West, in Colorado that is
Cheers, Peter

Peter:
If you just leave the stock ES needles in for the trip, you will have no
trouble. You will just have to lean the jets a bit when you get up to about
5000 ft. (What are meters)'!!!!!!!???
Cheers:
Skip.........Trust me ! I have been there and done that.

Re: SU needles for high altitude
If I can get to Durango (75 miles but 2-1/2 hours) I'll be [i]dropping[/i] from 7200 ft. I've never changed the needles (I keep dreaming about living in Florida), so not to worry, Peter. Austin

What are meters? A little over three feet. I can't believe you guys don't know this? Murray Surprised in Oz

Murray;
You have been had!!
That was just a little bit of levity. As you know, we here in the Colonies dont use metric for the most part. In my case , after using and being taught feet,inches, lbs. etc. It is very hard to re-learn after almost 70 years.
Any way, I am glad that I did catch somebody.
Cheers:

We know what meters are here in the USA. We have had Speedo meters and Tacho meters on our cars for many years. Ed Curtis curtis@novagate.com

Re: SU needles for high altitude
You've got your meters and you've got your vegetarians.
Me? I'm a meter.

G'day Skip
Far as I can tell M-E-T-E-R-S are things used to measure household gas
consumption.
Perhaps you're confusing things with METRES... which are continental bizzos
just a bit longer than a yard.

Jeff:
I think it is all a plot to confuse us!
And some of us confuse easily.
