Re: Speedway Stromberg 97 Quality?

Re: '39 window regulators
I did my 39 tudor by myself. I can't give any superior advice other than patience. I heard a rumor that the factory workers assigned this duty only lived to their mid 30s.

Re: Driveshaft coupler pins removal
make a pointed tool for your pneumatic chisel--place it in the center of the pin--hit trigger in brief spurts--it will very likely come right out.

Re: Speedway Super 97 Carbs
I have had dual set of SS 97s for two years with no problems. Had to change jets to fit my rebuilt engine--too rich out of the box.
