Answer
Hi Steve,
The 2-SE was used on the 71 TR-6. The 73 TR-6 used the SEV. Not a lot of difference as far as a rebuild kit. The only thing I would be concerned about would be the metering needle number/letter. Many kits don't come with metering needles anyway. Just look at the number/letter on your needles and get the same needles.
