Good luck Tim. Hope it pans out.
Kas, would this car have had PI? If so, would it have had your
modifications to the fuel cam on the metering unit? Charly Mitchel,
Jeff Durant and myself are trying to work with Greg Lund to remake that
unit so our PI cars will not have to rely on vacuum or standard Lucas
snail cams to meter the fuel.
Thanks,
Chuck
