This is mine. Sits on a warmed over Diamond B in the truck in my avatar


Winfield by juggler29, on Flickr

I bought it at the Big 3 meet at San Diego. Had been polished on the outside, but seemingly never run. Casting in chambers was pretty rough. Found the best thing to polish them up was a little flapper wheel on a Dremel.

The markings on the outside are a 'Flying A logo' then 07 150. I thought it was a 7:1 casting, but as above have also been told that that was a date/sequence code. Any other info/clarification gratefully received.

Cheers
