OK, When you put it like this, I think I can see your point. If I worked for 
say a month solid on a certain project and found out by accident that my 
project was being sold by someone else, I think I too would get miffed. But, 
is it wrong to charge someone who wants an EFI system, doesn't want to do it 
themselves, and doesn't have the time either, and wants the best EFI around 
for their favorite vehicle? I enjoy helping others get EFI on their cars, but 
I can't do it for free. I don't charge anywhere near what Howell and other's 
are charging. I guess the tone of my first website about tpi systems was a 
little greedy, but I thought I was helping without giving away all my 
capabilites. Even you say in Prog 101 that you cant give way all your secrets 
because you "have to keep an edge".

So let me suggest a compromise. I'll openly publish everyhting I have to date 
on the GM ECM site by uploading my html on incoming or whereever Steve Ravet 
wants it. I'll also add an introduction to my "commercial site" telling where 
anyone can find out how to do everything I can do. then if they still want me 
to do it, I'll do the labor to build them a kit, tbi or tpi. I'll also keep 
updating the GM EFI tuning site to add the rest of the fuel tuning section 
and the spark timing section. I can't do it right away, but given enough 
time, I'll finish it. If this still doesn't meet with you guys approval, I'll 
go find another hobby to throw money at withuot expecting any to bounce back 
to me. JW
