I am putting together a web page of the process we went through to do the 
conversion while it is still fresh in my head.  I will post the website 
address when it is complete.

Having driven the car for a couple of days now, I can say that it was well 
worth the effort.  It is like having a brand new car because I am able to 
keep the RPM's in the power curve almost all the time.
