Aaron,
Cute, real cute :). I could relate to your set of goober jokes only
because I lived in Upstate NY for 6 years, and quite a few of the
independant mechanics, while skilled and good at what they did, certainly
fit your goober stereotype.

I have issues with the same concepts... newer technology ::in general:: is
better than the old stuff for a variety of reasons. I happen to like the
dual carb setup for power, but my ignorance in FI (and lack of funds <G>)
keep me in the dual-carb arena. This project I'm working on now will be a
new start for me, for I have decided for emmissions reasons to utilize FI,
and hopefully, as my knowledge base grows (and *I* get more teeth <G>) I'll
have a mean, reliable setup.
I just have to learn enough to build a 1200hp twin-turbo emmissions legal
system <g>.
Cheers,
Fred
