Huw,

	I talked to George about this very thing, and Orin Eman was 
checking into the code to see how often the ECU needs that distributor 
reference.   Orin thought it was only needed when the ECU detected 
knock.   If Orin can figure out away to reprogram the ECU so that it 
doesn't need this signal, then we could simply bolt the Franco gear on 
the cam, and enjoy it.
