3A Was: Frankenstein Monster Motor is running!



Well, not real sure as I do not think I ever really got an accurate test.  I was constantly, CONSTANTLY screwing with the CIS-E, and some gas stations would not fill it up completely, ie. the shut-off would come earlier on some stations than others- but on the Cincy trip, which was one of the few tanks where I did not fiddle with anything,  I got about 32 MPG on the way back.  That's with a 4k tranny, stock gears going about 70 MPH.  ;)

  Don't worry EL-T, I can practically hear that 3A in my car calling your name. ;) Did I mention that it has 10.5:1 compression and a huge cam? >:->

Oh Cathy,

Think about it this way...... I have been giving the 1.7 ltr as much of a work out as I can. Where is the red line on merging? OH it really is
 a red line between shifting....... Anyhow should I say more 1.7? Hell the 1.6 is a better version.

probably used up the good parts from the bins already...) When I popped my
hood at Cincy, the first comment was "What the Fuck is That?" Do you want
to live with that? Think carefully...
