Can someone identify these SU carbs please. I purchased them a few years ago.

Looks like the front carb of an HS6 pair with waxstats.
Maybe a few pics of different angles may confirm?

There should also be an aluminium identification tag attached to one of the screws for the dash pot covers, although they are often damaged and not replaced over time. They will identify the carb - HS6's usually are AUD574F / R (front /rear).
