[Spridgets] SU rebuild time

[Mike Rambour]

  Yup, it does not include the needle, so now I have to hunt those 
down.  Going with "standard" cams/porting/pistons, etc. and bore is only 
ten over, nothing hot, just a good runner we hope.

  I am worried about the piston and inner surface of the dashpot, I know 
better than to glass bead those areas but they have corrosion on them 
and I will clean that up differently but it may be more corrosion than I 
can clean up and still use the parts.  We will see, I taped off the 
piston parts and inside of the dashpot along with some other areas I was 
not sure of and also used some silicone plugs for some of the holes in 
the carbs and started blasting them last night, outsides look GOOD now :)

  Ok, what is the yellow bible ? guess I need yet another manual :)

you'll probably never need one again.
