    " Sooooo, M60. Won't bore you anymore "

    I must agree! I would choose an M6X TORQUE BEAST over the S5X. With the exemption of an S14 if laying around for other reasons.

      Also, you are a cock with tacky taste.

      That is all.

            Well, you have to consider it's not only the adapters you need. You have to fabricate new linkages, not too difficult, but has to be done right. Once I have it up and running, we can talk about the adapters

                        You "could", there are alpha-n chips out there that'll let you do it. But me, personally, on ITB setups I prefer a different control strategy. I'll do speed density, with tps-based fuel and calculated load -based timing.

                          Plus, with the price of a decent computer nowadays....playing around with off-the-shelf chips makes no sense anymore.....

                            Well, been pretty busy at work, and not much has happened.
                            Finished the rear diff rebuild, and installed the front end to cheer me up. And boy, it cheer'd me up!!!
