I like that ..
'totally agreeable statement.'   nice way to phrase it.

I have a whole CISe vanagon engine conversion ....
the conversion layout is started , then I got distracted.

I will try running my 2.0 16V valve on 1.8 16V CIS-E fuel injection
...see how that works.
if I can't get it working right ..
I might run it on Digifant.

I also have a 79 450SLC Benz with purely mechanical CIS.
I've had it running ...but it has/had a severely worn timing chain and I
haven't finished that task  either.
