  1. A couple of trial & error things come to mind that I would try to isolate the cause of the problem. When the engine is warm and bogging when you blip the throttle, disconnect the vacuum line from the regulator so it has max pressure all the time. If that improves the bogging there could be a lag between the engine vacuum dropping and the regulator raising the pressure quickly enough causing a lean condition. If it does improve the bogging you might want to check to make sure you are using the correct vacuum port for a SC engine and make sure you have the correct regulator. for an SC engine. Next, try disconnecting the O2 sensor to put it back in open loop with it operating off the tables. If that improves the bogging it might point to the MAF causing it, or you might need to adjust the tables to eliminate the bogging in closed loop. You don't want to get it so rich that it might wash the cylinder walls but I would rather have a rich mixture than a lean mixture. Lean mixtures can destroy high performance engines. Yeah, I know, this is carport engineering at it's finest but you have to start somewhere. 🙂

  2. Today, I went to a Bay State Antique Car Club car show at the Endicott Estate, Dedham, MA. Good God Gert there had to be 4000 cars of all makes there. We BCA Minuteman Chapter members were well represented with 13 Buicks, which included a '41 four-door convertible, a '35 four-door sedan, a couple of '56's, 2 Reattas (mine included), along with other notable Buicks. Weather couldn't have been better...mid-seventies with low humidity. Sorry, no pic's, though...too busy admiring all the show cars.

  4. Hallo All, When I look on the highway in my mirrors I almost never see the car next to me. Therefor I bought (from China) a kit with 4 cameras, front left, right and back. I have just installed camera on my left mirror and tried it and it works. I will be putting an extra screen in the car and keep you updated. These are pictures of the camera and how I got the wire in the car. Thanks Alain from Belgium
