 I have no other explanation for you Gerry.. Thats just what happened.  But
if it makes everybody feel better, I always get "weird" problems. Nothing
ever goes wrong in the normal sense, theres always some twist to things that
make the job interesting.  =)
 Anyhoo, the car in question is a 1973 Nova, 350, auto, 3.08rear. (And it
was still using the stock 2GC at the time), and single exhaust. (This was
many years ago)
