fuel injection or carbs?

...heat shield.

Get ready for some Datsuns to come steaming south on I-5 through Redding heading for the track day at T-hill on the 15th.

Then they and a gob from the south will come steaming back through heading for Shasta City that afternoon.

I've done a track day class session at Thunder Hill. It's a real kick. I drove a car from the complete opposite end of the spectrum though..........my wife's '96 Impala SS. It's an impressive piece of iron out there on the track and surprises alot of people.

Not really. Based on the particular problem, there is a particular direction you go in. I guess after dealing with Bosch type fuel injection off and on for fifteen years or so, it's second nature for me also.

Direction is the key word. Troubleshooting is more involved, more time consuming because there are tons more things that can go wrong with FI than carbs.

True. But after dealing with FI for so long, I know what to mentally eliminate, so it's really not that time consuming. Now carbs . . . well there's adjustments, syncronization, balance tubes, damper oil, etc. I guess it's all in what you're used to.
