SU carb experts?
I'm thinking about organizing a "tech session" with our local 'Volvo Sports America' (VSA) chapter. You may not know it, but most carb'd vintage Volvos were equipped with dual SU's. I was wondering if anyone knows a mechanic or shop in the LA area who really knows how to set up and diagnose SU's. They need to be friendly too--the kind of folks willing to hold a Saturday tech session. Thanks in advance!

Re: SU carb experts?
How about Joe Curto, that's where all the SU parts come from anyway. Hal Waldrop is another good source, APT did mine but they also did a bunch of performance stuff too. This question should be posted in the Spridget section of the British car forum. There was just this exact same post a few weeks ago.....or was it the same people?
OOOPS!! I see you are looking for tech training, not having your carbs re-built.....sorry.
