Default Windsors on LPG

Hi All,

I'm gathering a bit of info on how AU Windsors go on LPG. I posted in the LPG section, but the only one who answered was JC! LOL!

I guess the best place for Windsor info is here anyway!

So, how do they go on mixer rings and if so, which type has the best results, OR is an Impco gas carby setup the way to go.

I have a mixer ring on one of my AU I6s and an Impco gas carby on the other. Both work well, but the Impco is the better of the two. It may of course be an entirely different kettle of fish for the Windsor.

Cheers,

GK
