The tentative plan is to have the swap performed on my car at DCS '14 for all to see and observe; barring a failure of the K-Jet system before that. It's interesting to note that my car will be going from a Stage II to a carb setup and, in the process, I plan to ditch the Nology wiring setup.
More news to follow, but this is a preliminary outline of my plans and a chance for all the show attendees at DCS '14 to see just how easy the setup is to accommodate.

that will definitely be interesting for all to watch. the ease and simplicity of the carburetor is definitely an attractive proposition. if i end up getting a D with a 'basket case' K-Jet, i will seriously consider a carb swap as well.

Too bad Captain Carburetor isn't on this forum anymore. It would be nice to be able to ask him some questions on here.

You can see the plan hatching in his mind already

They had nothing to do with my decision to go to a carb; though, I hope to learn a lot from them and hopefully Bill will be so courteous as to aide me with the initial install at DCS '14 for all interested to watch.

When I saw that pic of you with Bill and Steve, I knew you were joining the Carburetor Cult.

That picture wasn't even planned. We were chit chatting and Julie (I think) came up to us asking to take a picture. As far a I know, none of us discussed carburetors with Chad that weekend.

Provide me with a bottle of Diet Cheerwine and I might just drive up there and do the install free of charge. I plan to start canoeing the Mississippi River again and Wisconsin happens to be on my way to Minnesota.
