Thought this might interest some of you boost guys. On a side note. I didn't know there was a fuel issue in 1961.. no wonder all those small cars came out at the time.

It wasn't realy a fuel issue but a detonation issue due to the intake charge being to hot and so it needed the Meth to lower the charge and run like any other car but the V8 was just to small at 215 CID now if they went with 1 of they'er 300+ CID engines then the car would of been something to fear as it was only able to turn high 18 low 19 sec 1/4th times!!!!
