    And that illustrates the difference between Frank's shop and my garage ... I'm just a couple steps past putting my Comet back together with 2x4s and nails ... :D

    I don't know..... I like the look as it is :thumbs2: even if you cut the hole out of the scoop and made it functional.

    I thought you already had EFI? That Projection III thing. And you just had it tuned. Now are you going to go with a factory type multi port EFI? That would be cool.

    Powerjection III...will fit under my Grabber hood with no mods.
    the first system, the 'puter wouldn't hold the tune.
    the second system, the 'puter wouldn't hold the tune.
    the third system is sitting at home waiting for me to get there and install it...:bouncy:
    if the third system will hold a tune i will keep it. if not ...COWL INDUCTION HOOD... time...:tiphat:

    So I'm guessing you WOULD NOT reccomend the Power Jection III system? Hope 3rd time is a charm. So are you just running a carb for now? why wont it fit under the Grabber hood if the Powerjection system fits?
