Greg --
Thanks for the breath of fresh air. My car is almost 1967 legal and I'm proud of
it. However, I do run a modern alternator, modern starter, and non-visible
electronic ignition, in an attempt to eliminate The Prince's most mischevious
gremlins.
I've told myself that someday I'll pop not only for Carillos but for a steel
crank as well, having narrowly averted disaster by catching yet another cracked
stock one this year.
How do you feel about these particular issues?
