i have just put a HIF44 carb on my 1275gt engined mini .. with a LCB single box 1.75 exhaust .. standard head ..
what needle do you guy say would suit this carb ..
i downloaded Winsu .. and no real joy it said a needle that no one seems to stock ... aaaagggggghhhhhhhhh

not run it yet as i have blown out the carb and waiting for a fiotting kit for the exhaust to arrive ..
the needle in the carb is a BDL ..

Any ideas .. and what needles are you guys running

Rolling roaded?

It's not been on the rollers yet. Hoping to get it to Gerald Dale or ML Motorsport for that.

Meantime that BDL is ok!

the reason i ask about the needle .. is that it runs great but as you throttle hard it .. theres a flat spot .. more throttle and you can drive through it ... when she picks up . pulls lovely .. just the flat spot issue ... its a second hand carb .. might need a blow out with a air hose ..
