[DeTomaso] Predator Carb

[P. Rimov]

Had one for a short while, couldn't get it tuned, always too rich while 
cruising or WOT or couldn't get it tuned in at idle, start up or shut down. 
Changed to a Demon for a couple of years, still had similar problems, tuning 
on any given day needed tuning a couple of months later, weather and temp 
changes. Finally, put a very basic, Holley Projection, EFI with TFI spark 
and was thrilled with the performance, ease of tune, start up, idle etc. 
Finally got the engine dialed in, sold it, building a house and now drive a 
Volvo, LOL
