    Did you do the electronic conversion on the Hilborns ? How hard was it to do and how does it run ? Nice rpu by the way.

    I love the comment section of video "what music is that it goes great with video'' I don't know it's only SRV the greatest guitar player to ever walk the face of the earth!

    Wow, thanks for all the kudos! I didn't think much of it when I threw it up here.
    On the fuel injection: I did the conversion using some '60's Hilborns that came off of a Bonneville car when the owner upgraded to a larger set. I used a Megasquirt II ECU kit that I purchased from Do It Yourself Auto Tune and soldered together myself. I recommend it if you really want to learn about how these systems work.

    Here's a couple of other videos that I've done regarding this project.
