    lol true. They used old school ways of tuning as well. Unplug the IAT and put in a resistor/whatever to run +2 degrees of timing. AFC or something older was there to add fuel. No wideband/scanning.

    That's when all the "how to's" were made, you could find a 20,000 mile gtp and run it as hard as you wanted. The owners were also a little older at the time to afford the car and didn't drive like a teenager all the time. Nowadays, it's the opposite, young kids, cheap cars and they take a beating with high mileage.

    Not sure about around your area but race gas at $8+ per gallon where i live...

    But it appears money is not a problem since he's going to keep running the small pulley... throw money away..
