The point was...there are at least 20 different sources
of this type of information that are FREE.
The guy went through a lot of work to produce a feasible
working system and wrote an article about it. Fine.
I personally could design and program an ECU myself.
as well as the rest of the system. (that's my line of work.)
I figured it would just be interesting reading..on a snow bound
day like today, but not at $30 a pop.

Hrm... let me see if I get this.
$30 < $2200
And if you figure in the savings you will get from information in the
article, it would become $30 + $usedFI < $2200.
Knowledge costs money...
However, this 'mentality' can be seen amongst the ranks of most post 1962 MG
owners... I guess it is a bi-product of MG producing the world's most
loveable low cost sportscar(s), and then 25 years later people are still
loving them... and they are still looking for the _cheapest_ possible way of
owning them (with no regard for much else but the cost) .
chocks away,
