yea ok.

Another friendly racer is correct, when I had my fuel injected pos (as my friend Bernie C and I affectionately referred to it), I never really got along with it. That's why we pulled my old Camaro out of the barn and made it into a stocker. But lets face it, that was then and this is now. I'm no genius, but the whole efi deal has come a long ways since then. Bridgewater's COPO was badass! The only thing that messed me up was my own poor evaluation of the tail wind's effect on a swoopy hot rod Sunday am.

I was feeling pretty good about the COPO's chances, and I actually thought I might be the lucky recipient of Pete's *** kicking in the final. Thanks again to Big Dave for the opportunity!

Another big time racer who chooses to race a carb. But hey, what do I know, maybe someone slipped me some drugs without me knowing.

I have run both, and if the EFI is tuned correctly, there is no difference.

Hi Dan. I have a 37 Olds to run if you have time.
