FORUM RULES: Users agree to these Rules when using Forum.

The site administrator reserves the right to change the terms and conditions of the user agreement without prior notice to the user. It is the responsibility of the user to regularly review the terms of this agreement.

The user agrees to the following terms:

All information that you provide to us for your membership is correct.
You will not use your membership to spam, harrass, or exploit other members in any way.
Vulgar, Abusive, Racist and Sexist Language will not be tolerated.
Commercial-type sales postings will not be allowed.
No mass posting or flooding of the boards is allowed.
No Advertising of parts or cars; no Ebay or business/commercial ads (please use the "Classified" for ads Wanted or For Sale).
VIEWING MULTIPLE TOPICS ON SCREEN: You can choose to see more than 10 Topics at a time ... Log In and choose "Preferences" from the top bar on the Forum page. Scroll down and Change the "Default Topics Returned" parameter to 25 or 50, and save the changes. Since this setting is stored in your browser 'cookies' (if enabled), it seems to use that stored value even if you are not logged in. So, if you use a PC that you haven't logged into the forum from, the setting still seem to remain at the default.
EXTERNAL PHOTO LINKS ON FORUM: You can still use external photo links in your posts on the new forum. They follow the rules of any link in that they have to have the URL link qualified down to the full image file name (example: .jpg). The links will open in a new browser window, the same as an uploaded image attached to a post. Since an image attachment to any post does not display inline with the post, the results are the same. You can use multiple external links within a post. This link is from photos on a site from Don Clink's 'Deuce@75' albums:

http://donclink.com/deuce_75_1/images/dscn2950.jpg

Using links from photo sites such as Photobucket can help in "size" issue with uploaded attachment files. For best viewing in web browsers, photos should be around the 800x600 pixel range, and probably not more than 1024x768. Most cameras today store HUGE jpg image files, as the default settings are in the 7, 8, 10, and 12Mb image sizes. The image files that are then attached are very large, and the browser can't display the full image size without using the scroll bars. Use the re-sizing functions of your photo editing software to reduce the image to 800x600, which reduces the file sixe and the image load time in the browser. Don uses Google's free Picassa3 software, which is an excellent photo management product. All of the photo albums of the Deuce, Grand National, and Auburn that are links on the NORG site were built using Picassa's web creation functions. And it's free? (THANKS to Don Clink for the info!)

It depends when and where it was made. Early 36 ie: nov,dec, of 35 and probably jan 36 used a Strom.#48 Partial installation of Strom. 97's was started in jan or feb and not at all plants at the same time. By apr.-may I would say all were using 97's. 34-36 48's are not quite identicle 34 has no markings on it saying #48. 35-36 had a small #48 embossed on the lip and barrel of said units. This is the best info I have on them. Ken Ct. " ken's Ford Carburetors "

Thanks Ken.
Do you rebuild them? If so, what does it cost. I do have a good core. Or do you have the kits to rebuild them.

I agree with the identification as explained above by Ken. Let me add a couple of twists, that are my opinion. The Stromberg 97 was supplied to Ford and Ford did not have control of other engine manufactures Stromberg supplied the Carb. to. Ford did have a warranty and rebuilding service including Carb.s To identify Ford production Carbs in 1935 and differentiate them from other years and manufactures the small 48 (Ford part number prefix for the 35 Carb.) was added to the Carb. die casting on the top and center sections. To identify the 1936 Stromberg 97 it APPEARS that the Ford part number prefix 67 was added to the casting of the Ford Carbs. top and center sections. The size of the number 97 casting appears to be smaller that some later 97 that are larger in size. Thus the term "large logo 97" today is often given to the Stromberg with the larger casting numbers. I have not seen any of the large logo 97 with the additional 67 numbers.

Do I assume you want which I think is correct the large stand alone "(97)" and the small domed fuel pump. Am I correct? ken ct.

That's interesting information. The carb on my '36 has a (I think) large 97 on the carb body and a top with a 67 on it. Maybe a mix and match from a rebuild somewhere along the way, though the patina and finish on both parts match well.

this is exactly what I have. 67 on top and 97 on the bottom. I need to replace the fuel pump as mine has the glass bowl which is wrong
