Hi all!I just removed a 2 bbl Stromborg carb from my 58 DeSoto 361 V-8. Unfortunately, it doesn't have a tag. Here's all the info I could find on it: "Bandix Stromborg Model WWC" Also, embossed on the side is a circle with the following numbers inside it, which follow the curve of the circumference: 389159 (maybe the 59 means it was manufactured in 59? Could the tag number be 3891?). Below these numbers is a large 1 and a smaller 3 over the number 16, to the right of the 1. (Sort of like a fraction without the line. One could almost say is is supposed to read "1 3/16" .) On the back side of the carb, it appears 4C4 is engraved into it. That last 4 is kind of faded, but it seems to be a 4. Can anyone give me a positive ID? I'd like to see if I can find an overhaul kit for it. Does anyone know if these carbs are even worth overhauling or are they crap from the get-go? Any words of wisdom are appreciated. Thanks! ************************************************************* To unsubscribe or set your subscription options, please go to http://lists.psu.edu/cgi-bin/wa?SUBED1=l-forwardlook&A=1 |
