'749 questions

[Programmer]

Bruce was kind enough to sell me a couple cheaply--I've seen them as
low as $7.95 at a U-Pull-it yard. Sometimes you can bluff the sales
person at the counter on the other parts--just play stupid and you'd be
surprised at the prices. Since the '808 is MAP related--does anyone
know if it'd scale to a 2 or 3 bar MAP sensor ? Otherwise, with the
schematics--it's a pretty straight forward swap with the 1227749 ecm.

BTW--There's a guy in Calgary, AB runnin' a 780cc Rotax in a dragster
that's running low 10 second quarters (normally aspirated).

Lyndon.
