Glad to hear that fuel mixing still works the same--I was hoping that no
one had revised the laws of Physics in preparation for Y2K--please
understand that our "good old days" , and the availability of Sunoco 260
(let alone 270) and Amoco 101 octane ULP long preceded anyone having any O2
sensors. Beasties like 426 "elephants", 429 "Shotguns" and 427 side oilers
were still roaming about our streets in reasonable quantities in those days
with (now antiquated things like AFB's and Holley 3310's perched on top!

Regards, Greg
