[QUOTE="Hooper, post: 4363384, member: 46111"] REAL COOL Man when you can see the difference without a start response timer you know that is slow. So that is you in the Chevy? If so I will subscribe, try to help out your viewer logarithm. Plus I would a lot rather watch someone's videos that I know a little bit about. You ever heard of Blue Oval down in Mineral Wells, TX. He has some real cool early 70's Pony's. Youtube Blue Oval to check him out. If you are in Mineral Wells ever look him up, He loves to show his collection. It is well worth the trip. Then you ever heard of Gene Gooch? He has passed on, but he was a local OKC boy, who Raced Chevy's for years starting on the streets, went on to NHRA. Was either a National President or a State President of the Corvette Car Club and possibly both, can't remember exactly on that. He was my Aunt's nephew. Back in the late 60's and 70's he would visit my Aunt frequently, would always have a New Chevy Muscle Car, and He would take us for rides. My Aunt bought one of his 1969 SS Chevy's that had a 396, Yellow with Two Black Stripes over the hood and top. Seems like it had an air induction system, can't recall.

Well you can imagine the rest of the story. I remember you could not stay leaned up to see the results. Good Times. I agree on that starter deal, looks like a built in problem to cause early failure, for the starter, the air conditioner compressor, dry starts, let me think a minute, yes many problems with the engine stop feature. I would also suspect the gas savings and exhaust emissions they are supposed to be reducing are flawed too. Besides that who doesn't love the smell of raw fuel and rubber burning on a good green light start. Whether you are on the track or not. [/QUOTE]
