Fuck, why do I keep getting the “must spread some rep around before giving this person rep” tag bull crap all the time? Maybe if there were posts worth me giving rep to other people than the few I have done so for already then I’d spread the wealth a bit. Weaksauce. My rep is confined to that of three sub categories. Let me distribute freely I say! Ok I’m done now :tongue ---

The mechanical fuel pump is running on a 6 throw crankshaft driven at cam speed. This way instead of having a halibrand style injection that feeds all cylinders continuously, fuel is only shot into the intake tract when the air velocity is high providing much better fuel atomization. This would also prevent fuel pooling behind the intake valves, and increase fuel economy. Still not as good as a piezoelectric injector though like the Sauber is running 8 of. ---

John and the hi-res doing work. Photo you snagged yourself? You always seem to have sweet “sans-bodywork” hi-res shots of GTP/prototypes. Mike, I’m that way with 956/962 and 934/935 and nothing else. Ok and the Mclaren but that’s it :tongue ---

The 956 and 935’s were originally mechanically injected and later switched to the motronic EFI(and even later in the 962 to the “double DME” motronic). While not nearly as performing as EFI is now, I’m still a huge fan of the mechanically injected P-cars. If nothing else I think it’s the sound of the cars. The old MFI and CIS car has such a distinct engine decel noise that makes my spine tingle. At RR3 there was such a sweet '87 930 with a flat fan 935 MFI 3.2L in it. Grand theft auto definitely crossed my mind :lol ---
