Is there any new service bulletins for the rebuild on the Franklins that have changed in the last 30 years? I have one tore apart now and was wondering, I figured some one here could send me in the right direction. Thanks Joe
 
Joe,
I still run across 150 Franklins with the so called "Light Base" cylinders that Franklin offered to replace back in '49. Make sure the cylinders are set up for the #18084 exhaust valve.

Dan, I have ten 165 jugs with twelve 150's, I was told to use the 165's and the valve train from the 150's too much spring pressure for the cam. Thanks for the response Dan.
 
Larry, An ole boy in Georgia that use to rebuild then for 40+ years, I thought he would know? Unless you know something different? Thanks for any Advice this is a new animal for me and I want to do it right. Joe
