Which moving coil cartridge could I fit on this arm if any???
Thanks

Going higher then 1.5g, means that the outrigger is no longer usable for setting tracking force.As mentioned below, the Denon DL-301 mkII is a good candidate, as is the AT-OC9ML/II.
Best regards,
None! The SME 3009/S2 imp was an ultralightweight arm, totally unsuited to heavy, low compliance cartridges. Having said that, I use an SME 3009/S2 (unimproved) for several years with a Denon 103D with great results! The arm was a little heavier than yours and the compliance was quite high for a Denon but the combo tracked well and sounded great!
These are low output high complience carts that work fine and sound great IMHO. The DL 160 high output should also work but I haven't tried it.
In addition to the AT OC9 the AT 33 works well with low mass arms.

This cartridge is compatible and it will perform FAR beyond its price:

You can only use cartridges which are light & highly compliant. For example, Shure V15 and AT 440ML to name a couple.
