DSC_8488We’re relaunching our whole TwoStep fuel line range at the moment, with significant price reductions and lot of new products – some available now and more coming soon. Folks have asked about Stromberg fuel lines for flathead Fords without the stock fuel pump for some time, so here we go.

These new Stromberg Fuel Lines (Part Numbers 9141-RP and its fully polished brother 9141-RP-P) are designed for use with two 97s and a remote fuel pump, extending the range to include a lot more 2×2 flathead intake manifolds. Here are the highlights.

  • Fits any 2×2 intake manifold with 4-3/4in carb centers
  • Fits Offenhauser 1090 & 1075 2×2 Regular intakes
  • Fits Edelbrock 1103 2×2 Slingshot intake
  • Fits Navarro 2×2 Regular intake
  • Fits Eddie Meyer and Thickstun PM-7 2×2 High-rise intake intakes
  • Unique end fitting takes stock Ford fuel line or 9080K Superseat hose end (available separately)
  • Accurate CNC-bent 1/4inch OD stainless steel lines with a unique tapered T-piece and invisible furnace brazed joints for OE looks and quality
  • Brass Ford Nut fittings are supplied.
  • Use with Stromberg TwoStep 9241S or 9241P 2×2 linkage

Designed and manufactured exclusively by Stromberg Carburetor, TwoStep Fuel Lines combine super-clean hot rod styling with simple installation. Each kit is supplied ready to install in just two simple steps. TwoStep kits are not a ‘one size fits all’ solution. They’re CAD engineered to fit Stromberg 97, 81 or 48 carburetors on specific intake manifolds. Every Stromberg TwoStep Fuel Line kit comes with full instructions, and further help with selection, installation and tuning is available at our Tech Center.

DSC_9525Need a chrome 3×2 linkage with kickdown facility for your small block Chevy or Ford? Your early overhead valve engines, like Ford Y-block and ’49-’61 Cadillac? Or your 6×2 Edelbrock X1 Ram intake? Step right up, sir. We have just what you need. We added three new chrome Stromberg linkages to our range today. Here’s how they shake out:

9246PRO-KD-CHR 3×2    5-1/2 inch carb spacing. Fits small block Chevy – Offenhauser 3558 and Edelbrock 5414 & 5418 3×2 intakes.

9251PRO-KD-CHR 3×2   4-7/8 inch carb spacing. Fits Offenhauser 3×2 intakes for early overhead valve engines, like Ford Y-block and ’49-’61 Cadillac, (but check carb spacing before ordering). Also used with our 9261-BB Back-bar kit for 6×2 Edelbrock X1 Ram intake.

9253PRO-KD-CHR 3×2   4-3/4 inch carb spacing. Fits Edelbrock 5412 3×2 intake for small block Ford. Fits some Weiand 3×2 intakes for early overhead valve engines (but check carburetor spacing before ordering). Also used with our 9262-BB Back-bar kit for 6×2 Offenhauser Pacesetter 3924 intake.

All three are high quality CHROME 3×2 progressive carburetor linkages with auto-trans kickdown capability – an extended center lever with a 1⁄4”UNF thread to accept the special fixing common to most (eg ‘Lokar®’) hot rod auto-trans kickdown cable kits. Stromberg KD linkages are designed to work with the Stromberg Cable Throttle Bracket (9136K), which provides a fixing hole for the small cable mount extension bracket supplied with most hot rod kickdown cable kits.

3×2 Progressive linkage update

DSC_9188I’m not sure if it’s a blessing or a curse. We develop something cool, everybody likes it and, hey, people even buy ’em! But here at Stromberg, that’s never quite enough. We’re always looking to make things better, even in a small way. And here’s a perfect example.

We’ve made a small running change to all our 3×2 progressive linkages. The regular PRO kits, the PRO-KD kits with kick-down hook-up facility, and the chrome versions of both. You’d barely notice it, but it’s something we’ve been looking at for a while and it bugged us enough to make a change. Basically, the swivel for the lever with the sliding link through it used to have a small set screw in the center so you could lock it off if you wanted. We thought it might make it more versatile, but experience proved us wrong. More often the screw went AWOL. So we’ve deleted it so the swivels match at both end carburetors and the whole system gets a smoother look. OK, that’s all. A small change, but one for the better.

New Stromberg banjo spacer

9086KHere we go. Another smart solution to an age-old problem from your friends at Stromberg Carburetor. Launches today..our new Banjo Fitting Spacer (9086K) moves the banjo fuel line out one inch from the inlet fitting, providing instant clearance for the long centre lever arm you find on all tripower progressive linkages.

Ever since we launched our TwoStep 3×2 progressive linkages, we knew that using them with fuel banjos was a problem. Why? Because the long lever you need on the center carburetor to get the system to open those outer (secondary) carbs late enough, wants the same space as the banjo fuel hose. If you leave it long, it rubs on the hose – ie, a double safety no-no. And if you shorten the lever, either the outer carbs come in too early (for our liking) or they don’t reach Wide Open Throttle. Our new spacer solves that problem – simply and safely.

The new, media polished, stainless steel banjo spacer uses our proven Stromberg superseat end, with its correct 18 degree seat, into the inlet fitting (original or Stromberg S-jet). And the short wrench surfaces are designed so you can secure it properly but it still match the bolt head on the Stromberg banjo. When they’re all tightened up against the banjo, it looks like one solid piece. Check it out on our website right now! www.stromberg-97.com. To order, contact your local Genuine Stromberg dealer.
