Nice job!!
Cliffy also makes in-lane guides as well. I see you have some wear on yours (can't tell how bad from pics though). This will cause some ball hop to your flippers. Worth changing those on a restoration.

I may be buying a FG Sunday. Nice condition too! I hope I don't regret this as I know it's a brutal game LOL! I have played it before, but not enough to know it intimately. It sure is a beauty!!

Ya, I watched Bowen Kernis tutorial on it. Post passing is hard on this game even to him due to position of posts. My Gorgar is brutal. Outlanes are really hungry, that's why these classics are great for multiplayer LOL!
I was never good enough on Hobbit to have ball times anywhere near that long. The secret to Hobbit is setting the pitch high or it plays floaty and shitty. I have mine at 7.2. Then adjust flipper power to compensate.

LOL!
That's how my ACNC was. A sniper's game!

So, does anyone upgrade the flipper assemblies on this game. This is my first Bally. So linear flippers are new to me. Any advice on rebuilding or replacing these?

Well, I'm not sure if these are linear flippers assemblies or not. They have that plunger spring. So, are these the early style then??

This is a linear flipper assemblies used on Rolling stones forward:

So, I'm confused because the flipper assembly you show is same as this one.... https://www.pinballlife.com/mm5/merchant.mvc?Screen=PROD&Product_Code=ASE-1587-10X

but, this was only used up until 1980. Flash Gorgon is 1981? And not on the compatible game list?
* Apparently, Pinball Life does not sell full flipper assemblies for this Bally era.

Ahhhh! You're right! Classic Sterns. How different do these feel from the correct Bally flipper assemblies? I am familiar with the classic Stern feel.

OK. I got it. The original Bally assemblies like this one pictured below are not available, so people either use the Bally type you used or the Stern type in my previous pic (both available from Pinball Life)?
Thanks.

Thanks. But it's not necessary.

Interesting that some people claim they provide easier bump passing. This would be a really nice thing. But I have no idea? I don't know if I ever experience linear flippers. Now I want to buy a machine that has them to try out!
