Didn't Chevrolet try that on the Corvette back in the fifties? And I
think that Triumph tried FI on a car called a TR5. It must have not

Personally I like the options of old, like hand cranks. I use it almost
every winter when the cold sucks the juice out of the battery.
Mike,
You are right the late 50's and early 60's Corvettes had a FI option.
Right again in that the TR5 had PI (petrol injection).
Wrong about not catching on... all non-NA TR6's had PI!
Right you are about hank cranking! I've been doing that to my Model T for
over 15 years!!!
