[DMCForum] Re: Carbureting DeLoreans

["content22207" <brobertson@xxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Who else do you think I'm trying to rustle up these manifolds for?
Mine's already done. Good thing too, because just the other day I grew
curious about the condition of #4 spark plug and popped it out to
ensure everything was OK.

(Seriously Rich, my vacuum takeoff is on #4 intake runner, so if I
ever do develop a HVAC or brake booster vacuum leak that's the plug
that's going to get BBQ'd. It isn't a bad idea for me to check it from
time to time).

BTW: when I met up with Louie last week, he tried to show off and
unsuccessfully lose me in Charlotte traffic. Comparing notes later, he
was at least red lining (bad idea Louie) while I rarely left 5000-5500
RPM. I dare say Motorcraft's 2 barrel is up to the challenge.
