Go to the Minnowfish site, click on Reviews, scroll down to "What About
Bolt-ons Then".  Bob Henderson talks about the Fish on Imps.  Would not
touch the carb, or any external appendages, on Imps until "internal"
problems (cam) were addressed.  A waste of time.  There is some interesting
reading on that site.  He made some very good points 30-40 years ago that
are still valid today.  Sadly, most of us still do not truly understand his
message.
