Well, since I started this, maybe I should end it. My questions are based on a certain sickness I have for history. I feel there is reasons to preserve history, and there are reasons to ignore it. Bu

Too bad all these old racers have forgotten more than I'll ever know. We used EGT with an ITC Fiat and with F500s. Never ran it on the Corvette, just watched the paint on the headers burn. On the Fia
