This is the car I've had since 1971, taught the kids to drive in (heck,
RAISED them in, and a couple grandkids too!) so it is pretty dear to my
hort. I would like to get better performance and was thinking of going
to D-jet but since it is originally carbureted it would be kind of a pain
to run all the wires, etc. (I do have a complete harness though.)
(Far as that goes, I also have a complete D-jet engine, the whole enchilada!)
That would bring it up about 30 horsepower (175 vs 145) and with a decent cam
and some porting (which it already has) maybe another 10 or 20. And maybe
without making the gas mileage worse than it already is.

But maybe I oughta just go with D-jet. I already do have all that stuff.
