69' E-Type triple SU conversion

[mjm]

I am looking at Joe Curto, Inc in College Point, NY to rebuild and bench flow my SU's for my triple SU carb conversion. Does anyone have experience with Joe and his quality of SU work?

Also I am in need of a triple trumpet air intake to replace the current double trumpet on the air intake cowling. Any suggestions on where I could locate one?

Thanks,

mjm

Joe has long been known as a leading light as far as carbs for english cars. He has been around forever, and I have never heard an unkind thing said about him. For the intake trumpets, I would look on ebay, or you can try this gut

I have known Stefan for years, and buy from him from time to time. He can be hard to get a hold of, so be persistant.

Good Luck,
Jesse

I'll second Jesse's Joe Curto endorsement. The guy has had EVERY SU part we've ever requested. We always did all the rebuilds in-house, but have seen/set plenty of carbs Joe's gone thru and it was always a joy. No "surprises".

Ask him about the trumpets. He may/may not have a set but he may also know where they could be found.

If Joe can't do it, it can't be done.

Thanks for your quick response. I plan on sending Joe the SU's and I'll give Stefan a call on potential triple trumpet candidates.

Thanks again and Happy New Year,

mjm
