[Healeys] Drum balancing

[Joseph Troutwine]

I took mine to the local NAPA (West York, PA) that had a small machine 
shop in the back room.  They were way off, the guys in the shop said 
they had never seen drums that bad.  Based on the problem with these it 
is obvious the pattern used for the mold to cast these drums was not 
very accurate.  The effect was wonderful on the car.  Highly recommended.
