    Bob, I don't know how you can go through the winter not knowing if you found your ignition/fuel problem or not. I think I would be looking for a good tuner shop that has a chassis dyno, trailer the Camaro over there and buy an hour or two of their dyno time to sort it out and figure out if it's right, but that's just me. Seems to me having it in a controlled (warm!) environment where you can warm it up and run it through the rpm range while watching all of the variables (A/F, timing, exhaust O2, temps) on a data logger would be of value. I guess you're a much more patient guy than I am. Just hope you don't get so frustrated with it that you let someone haul it away for pennies on the dollar....

    Enjoy the little things in life, and you may look back one day and realize that they were really the BIG things.
