Rodney and Eric,

You'll both love this. I was at the Edelbrock car show on Sunday at their headquarters and was parked next to CSX 2239, a very nice old B-production racer. At least four people stopped by to chat about the car and asked "are those the new "Dynotek" (sp) fuel injectors?" "Where'd you hide the wiring?" I had to internally chuckle. Dynatek has made a name for itself at least to the general public that reads car mags. The younger attendees kind of had a saddened look when I told them they were Webers carbs but the older folks, like me, perked up and smiled. Eric, at least you can say "they're real" Dynateks.

What kind of response did you think you were going to get from the "Fast and Furious crowd."

I was recently riding in a car with a 20 something male who didn't even know what a Cobra was. How old did that make me feel.

I may have to install the Dynatek EFI setup, just so my car can be recognized and potentially identified at the next event.

Then you can say, "yes they're real (like Teri Hatcher) and no it's not chrome".

Yep, the Dynatek will be "real" but the car is a "replica."

OMG. The tail wags the dog yet again. I'd have webers except I was unwilling to except the responsiblity of owning them.

I have the chrome halon extinguisher between my seats, and more than a couple of kids ask "Hey, is that NOS???"

I have to say this when it comes to the Dynatek system on an FE motor. While I was at the Shelbyfest, it was clear that there were some VERY nice cars there. There were at least a half dozen other replica Cobras, not to mention the score of Super Snakes, GT-500s, KR (both new and old), and even a legacy GT. But with my hood rasied, men would walk by, look while passing by, then circle back and really look at the engine. Not just another Cobra..

From guys that I know have raced, driven, and owned all kinds of Fords, I got fantastic remarks on the motor.

I rolled out early, and got the "Waynes World - We're not worthy" hand signal from many people and small crumb crunchers on the way out.

Wow factor???? Yeah, it's got it hands down.
