I used to replace my ring compressor every couple of years. After most cars became fuel injected I didn't need to do that again.The older I get, the more I appreciate technology on old cars
the edelbrock fuel injection for older cars is interesting
get the right air fuel ratio under light driving or heavy load. Get right air fuel ratio at all RPM
no more reading spark plugs to see what might be happening in the engine
drill a few holes- weld in some bungs
Add O2 sensors
only a few wires
the fuel injection and electronic ignition
Engines last longer
Better performance
Easy starting
And elevation change - up to the mountains- down to the sea- air fuel is adjusted
My timing light and distributor wrench is under a workbench... not used in years
I love the retro mod concept, just not sure I would want to diagnose or pay to have a hiccup diagnosed
Those are still old school and restrictive. They have the possibility to not read correctly if you aren’t set up just right. The new new is a non restricted air flow snail or “sk” meter that looks like this.Like this one I used on my Weber 40 DCOE's?

Reminds me of being anchored out in Hong Kong harbor ( circa 1972) . I was on a fantail watch and EVERYWHERE I shined my flashlight, there were Jellyfish..... Remember thinking what a bad place to go overboard ! Not sure if they were poisonous or not ?

I did the same thing when I was invited to my wifes first OBGYN appointment while pregnant with our first child 31 years ago. No digital scale then only the balance beam kind. She almost started to cry when they had to move the 25 pound weight to the next higher notch. I was never invited back for another appointment, except for the cool ultrasound screenings.

No, I am serious when I say she looks like my wife.
My wife is 62
She was the first woman that I kissed, at the time I was 15 and she was 18,it was the ONLY time that I've ever lied to her.
We've been together ever since and let me tell you her butt is just as firm as it was in 1978.
Hell it may even be a little bit firmer since she still works out.
The 300 are being sold one at a time... guys email is in the video description link...Neat hoard. Did any of these actually get sold?
That must be in Michigan. It's a no-fault state.
