    That's true to, but, if you read back on all of this, that's what Henry was saying about using a accelerator pump, and hydro-carbons, hahaha. Money wise, a carb or predator, plus the mechanical challenge of a carb, is more fun to me. You know, like on mine, I would have to buy ALL the stuff to change it over. So, a carb is way cheaper. I don't even run electronic ignition. I like the dual point distributor. I have no problem with rpm's either. Plus, the cost is less.
    I think injection is better because of the trim of fuel, and computer control, just the cost, and the fun is not there for me.
    I guess I like to tinker more.
    that's where we part co. Danny, if it ant computer controlled then i don't wont it. the first dirt round track car i had in 74 was a mustang, tried every dist i could find and points was all ways a problem so i went to the junk yard and took the ign box and wiring harness off of a ford wagon and fabricated the pickup in my point dist. and eliminate all of my ign. problems. Haven't used a set of points sense.

    ps... i guess i got tired of tinkering
