Another "old" newcomer!
« on: November 16, 2011, 08:36:16 pm »
Hello all,

This is my first forum.  Typing from the center of the San Joaquin Valley, California.  Got an '87 R10 daily driver/perpetual project truck; 5.7 TBI converted to MPFI, 700R4.  Hope to benefit this clan if/when I can and gain from others' expertise, as well.  I like the friendly chatter on this site!

Best to everyone,
Rich

It's difficult to know just how much you don't know until you know it.
In other words... if people learn by making mistakes, by now I should know just about everything!!!

Welcome from Alaska, Rich.  Sounds like some interesting mods to your R10.  Was switching to MPFI very difficult?  What advantages have you realized over the TBI?
