Quoted: Computer controlled engine management systems https://i.ebayimg.com/images/g/3LIAAOSwoPJdwzkB/s-l1600.jpg Ask anyone with a 5.3L Chevrolet or GMC View Quote I like fuel injection and spark managed by a computer.

Quoted: Here's a modern day fad IMO: digital instrument clusters. People ooh and ahh over the graphics but it's really just the automakers being cheap/lazy smacking an LCD on the dash.

I splurged for one of the ODB port cheaters that keeps it in 8 cylinder mode all the time. That fucked up shifting from low to high and back down again is gone. |
