I'll try to get Alfa's side of the story on our list in the next few 
days, but let me quickly mention that event timing is not -critical- but 
it has a very strong effect on the ability of these simple old motors to 
deliver amazing throttle response.  Especially off-idle, through midrange.
Injection event duration is timed and very short, with positive fuel 
displacement at over 300 psi. The Spica [Alfa Romeo] system was used with 
mechanical and electronic controls during the time of the 1000 hp
days in F1.
