Does anyone remember what these Olds systems looked like? I recall once reading that GM had an induction system on F-85s (maybe this was not the production design) that used a jet of air from the tur

Yeah, well- just remember that the Ford Fairmont made R&T's "10 Best Cars for a Changing World" list in 1979 or so. To show the depth of their ignorance, they later wrote, after testing a Chevy Citat
