I bought a set of SU carburetors today, and have to wait a while until they arrive. I paid $125 for them, and I figure that when I do decide to switch over to MegaSquirt, I can pretty easily set the SUs for as much or more than I paid for them.
Anyhow, I can't wait until these carbs come in. Between now and when they do arrive, I need to yank the existing manifolds, re-thread the driver-side rear stud holes, and replace the gasket manifold gasket. I'll have to remember to drain the coolant down a bit -- there's coolant that runs through the intake, and I don't want that just dumping out onto my garage floor.
