Re: Ok.. I'm stuck..
That was funny. All my photos post upside down or sideways but if you click on them they they display correctly. It doesn’t matter how I take them or how I think I am posting them. But no one has ever asked me why I am assembling my speedster upside down

Re: Valve Stem Comparison
Larry have you given any thought to using balancing beads.

Since we like the screw heads to all be aligned so they look proper on your igloo the slot was just not doing it. You had to at the very most turn the slot a half turn to align the heads using the Robertson ...
