[DeTomaso] Recent Performance Threads

Hi, Of course you know that a J & S knock sensor will stop the pinging,  
and you don't have to worry about the gas you use. Regards Pat Orlando 1972

Boyd,
Thanks for asking questions on the list recently regarding  performance 
upgrades such as supercharging,
turbos,etc. as well as bringing  up many answers about EFI that have been 
expertly answered by those on
the  list that are "in the know"! All the enlightening answers from members 
has  made for very interesting 
reading on my part & hopefully, some of this  knowlege will rub off on me & 
my car both. At the present 
time ( after  running last weeks' ORR in Nebraska) I'm in the process of 
installing a  water-methanol
injection system (read cheapest alternative)  on the  Pantera to rid myself 
of the tendency of my car to ping @ WOT on pump gas due  to it being 
rebuilt several years ago with slightly more compression than was  intended. I'm 
tired of buying 110 race gas to mix with local 91 octane pump  gas to cure my 
pinging. Of course, on a longer trip like the 1000 miles I put  on the car 
last week I can only run 89-91 octane fuel from the regular gas  stations on 
the route - thankfully, 110 race gas is available in Arnold before  the 
race so no pinging problems on course. Since I'm more of a "Lurker" on  this 
list than a "Regular Poster" I
appreciate all the info gleened from  questions put forward by the guys 
like yourself. I read all of the  posts
daily so I never miss any info on any subject brought up by the daily  
posters & appreciate it all! You &
the rest of the guys (&  gals) keep up the good work!

Cordially,
Bob (Rowdy)  Radefeld   #5042
