I have driven Pieces before, and this car idles SOOOO nice.  I think I could
beat it in a flat out race, but I'm jealous of the general driveability (and
Frank tunes it by ear)!  No timing light or dwell meter for him !  :-)
So it seems that Stock SU's are best for mileage and general drivability.  I
am not surprised.
