YO Mrgto,Why would anyone on a low budget spend all the time and money to reto-fit a modern puter controlled USED motor into an old car when the can get more HP per $$$$ staying with the older carb setups???

I have made a living for 20yrs. wrenching for as an ase master tech,state DOE certified tech,w/many other tech puter certs.

My main point to the mans ?? is, if he doesnt have the proper diagnostic tools and knowledge,he will be over his head at the most minor drive-ability problem..

Most ECM controlled cars are reliable,I agree,but to the average back yard mech. I cannot truthfully recommend he do it,especially if hes on a limited budget !! [img]/infopop/emoticons/icon_biggrin.gif[/img]

ANYMOTOR can be made to run, example-->
Brigs@straton lawn mower engine in a JR dragster class,if ya got the $$$$$$...

And it dont have a puter..
