yup got the visual only not sniffer so the 5 k thing does not work. and classic plates have stupid rules i wouldn’t follow. i 'm guessing i could just get a demon carb and switch everything back though when its inspection time.

stupid question if i go that route does anyone know if the gauges will still work without the computer? i know on other years they do but heard the other day on 87’s they wouldn’t?

swap it out or get a autometer guage to see ur speed and rack up the millage on the autometer guage then hook up the stock guage so u can keep it under 5k a year. !!!

the 5k a year thing only counts towards if you have the sniffer from my understanding.
