After reading all the posts about Drew's method to restore Holley carbs, I thought that a DYI tutorial on restoring VC's might have some interest.
If so I'll continue a step by step process I gleaned from the Caswell Plating forum. Depending on the effort you'd want to put in it takes me between 45 min to 1 hr. for each VC. depending on the condition of the aluminum casting. More time is spent in the 100 to 150 grit range depending on the flaws. Final grit used is 800 to possibly 1500.
Here are some photo's of the 351C VC's before and after 800 grit sanding. Also a photo of the polisher I built.
