Thanks for the link. That is an excellent site. Too bad I recently sold my
O'scope. I will be interested, if I ever get my car completed, in trying
some of the ideas he has there.

I've read somewhere about fiddling with resistors and the head temp sensor 
to give more fuel.  I figured though that if the brains are a straight swap,

I might as well try that first.  That way things are pretty much stock 
d-jet.  I'll probably have to tweak the MPS a little.  I've read P Anders 
D-Jet website 
(http://members.rennlist.com/pbanders/manifold_pressure_sensor.htm - for 
those that haven't), so at worst I can follow his excellent guidelines with 
the MPS.
