DeTomaso Mailing List: April 98, Message #267

Good point.  Additionally you might want to add a long duration cam with
lots of overlap to help keep your compression low enough to eliminate
pinging.  Hate to see him reduced to using a knob on the dash to alter
ignition curves.  Seems I remember early articles on the Pantera berating
its designers for making the driver have to monitor the temp gauge and
manually turn on the second cooling fan.  Sounds equally demeaning.
