Hi Jim
Welcome to the list.
For those that don't get the magazine I found a link to the website of the
designers. Some may recognize the names Bruce Bowling and Al Grippo. Yeah
the ones with the website with all the useful formulas. If your curious
enough check out their EFI system. http://www.bgsoflex.com/megasquirt.html
Oh and yeah Jim there are a few us electronic guys on here some of us even
know which end of a wrench to hold.
Bill
Is March ever going to hurry up and get here? Race Fever is 10 times worse
than Cabin Fever!
