    Hi All,

    I have been buying Stromberg cores trying to get six useable ones. Got this one off the auction site advertised as rebuilt. (where rebuilt = missing half the guts) Trying to figure out if this air horn is too damaged to use. Figured I would run it by the experts before consigning it to the reject pile. 2014-10-05 10.27.01.jpg

    Thanks,

    I've run worse. Should be fine. The top of the body being warped from over tightening is something to watch for. But that can be sanded or filed flat. Oh and stripped fuel inlets!
