Depends.
What is the year of your engine ? Pre 95 is what you want.
Are you running a cat ? If post 95 you'll need one ( engine & carbs setup correctly as well)
Oh and it isn't sva anymore it was changed recently (about 5 years ago) to IVA.

I spent a lot of money on booze, birds and fast cars. The rest I just squandered.

Am I correctly led to believe that setting up a carb'ed engine to post 95 emissions rules is notoriously difficult? Or is it not as bad as some
people make out?

Not difficult at all, set the carbs as best as you can then fit the cat. A tame MOT station is useful or someone with a Gunson emissions tester.
