Now THIS looks really cute, and I'm impressed that someone has actually 
done the work for all of it. I am also just starting to read their stuff, but I 
notice one problem: There is an absolute pressure gauge mentioned 
somewhere on the schematics, but it's not there on the wiring diagram. In 
fact that's a big problem because as shown there's nothing that tells us how 
much air is going into the engine. (Throttle position itself is not enough.)

Oops, I see it mentioned now. It's a Motorola chip mounted right on the PC 
board, but I don't see it (means little) nor can I see where the vacuum line 
comes into the box. I wonder if that chip is okay with gas and oil fumes, etc.
