over-run valve? [was: Re: 4ksq turbo conversion]

[Ken Keith]

Oh, I see.  I was calling that the deceleration valve.  I'm familiar 
with this one.  I guess you don't need one of those if you are not 
going to be shifting, but I haven't thought that one all the way 
through.

It looks like only one wire goes to it, besides all the correct fittings 
and such to hook it up.  So, much later, if I should decided to add 
one, it may be possible.  I wonder if there is a wire or a pinout at 
the ECU for this.

Thanks for the info!
