Yep -- you are right -- it's not an Omega, but still a nice looking motor :y

Look forward to seeing the "new" engine set up  :)

So is it reading about half as much as its supposed to?

I know someone who used a variable switch like the one on your radio volume, to take the signal and adjust to the proper voltage so that the tack works as its supposed to...

On another note that little car must be a beast... that motor is simply sweet, I was trying to see if that manifold will fit the Omega but I guess it sticks up too far, on the back side, and wont fit...
