Do you mean emulsion tubes/needle jets?
265AB and the needles are K2 for a standard motor.
I?ve never seen other than 265AB in any PHB Dellorto on a four stroke.

Always wondered about having a play with different emulsion sizes but then figured hey if were are going to try to reinvent the wheel probably easier just to fit some modern carbs...
so yep that the set up from the factory was 265AB and K2 needles in middle notch and float height at 18mm give or take 1/2 a mm.Or for those folk like myself and some others in the real world that equates to 23/32......
If you go to this link it is helpful in understanding what it all means re needles and such, hope it helps, Im late now for a ride Marty will be on my case

If this is for your hotrod, Chris, be very aware that K2 needles will work with a limited main jet size, from memory anything above 165-170 will require a different needle taper. Discovered this when dynoing Tippie's bike with 5C cams and 2/1. I think we ended up using K4s, which (visually) only look to affect 3/4 to full throttle (=main jet). My SF(C) with 5Cs and 2/1 and 10.25:1 comp ran 180 mains.
