A FEW MORE PARTS NEEDED - SU HS8 Carburettors wanted

I tried once more with the pictures, (edit)

If it does not work:

One of them shows Alex's engine bay and the gap between the two HS8 from the thread: Rover P6 4.6 V8 Road/Race car.
The other compares Ron's engine bay with the HIF6 and the use of the 3500 SD1 Airbox with the bigger snout: My Rover

@cobraboy

The idea with the bigger airbox from the SD1 comes from Ron. As the 4.6 has approx. 30% more need on air, the standard airbox is to restrictive.
 
Dear community,

i have to reopen this thread once more.
The HS8 are almost rebuild, new gaskets, ultrasonic cleaned, new jets and needles, manifold ported to 2"...
@Willy Eckerslyke
Thanks again. After getting rid of all the dirt, they showed up in good condition.

when i tried them on the manifold i found out that it's not as easy as i thought.
My HS8 came from a 2000TC, thats why all the levers and linkage is mounted on the same side.
If you use them on a V8 manifold with both carbs facing each other you need carbs with diffrent linkage.

Does anyone has some of these levers around? Are my levers LEFT or RIGHT?

Mine are like theese:

And the should be like theese:
