The chase and fight scene between Warriors vs the Baseball Furies is my favorite fight scene in the movie. And the soundtrack was fantastic.  


Those carbs looks like they will need major overhaul.

We had a rack of Z1 carbs a few years ago in about the same shape.  They ended up pretty nice after many hours in an ultrasonic tank & elbow grease on the carb bench.

Please update as you go for the benefit of all with recommendations, how-tos, before & after pics, and general bellyachin', of which there will probably lots.

Good Ridin'

My guy with an ultrasonic tank already gave up on them. He says they are parts carbs. I'm looking at another set.

Did you "ungang" the carbs before ultrasonic?
