Zenith Strombergs can be tuned? By your statement that ZS's are harder to tune than SU's you're implying that you can tune a ZS. (Just jibing you) The only advantage to the ZS over a set of SU's or a
There is more truth to that than you know, hence the tendencies toward SUs!!! The balancing is often overstated. It is one of the easier things to set! The diaphragm is more to my original point!! Do
Take him for a ride over to my place, and we can confuse him no end. I've also got an inca yellow Spitfire, but I've also got a Fiat Spider. Oh we could have fun with this guy!

** I think you may want to check again. . .All Fiat 124 Spiders (Italian for convertible) not the Coupe, had a longitudinally mounted twin cam engine in the front driving the rear wheels. The 850 Sp
Not sure what kind of car you had Steph, But if the engine was at the rear, it was not a 124. Now maybe a 127 or 128, but I don't recall those being spyders. The 124 was always a front engined car i
You are right, it was a 850. The picture I looked at before didn't looked like the one I was working on but it's because it a Bertone one (The headlight are quite different). Just found another pictu
