Ahh...  But has anybody mentioned that 85 Vettes had slightly lower
fuel pressure than later years?  GM issued a bulletin that recommended
replacing the injectors, the cold start injector, and the fuel
pressure regulator to reduce injector clogging.  The regulator that's
used is the same as 86+ models.  I think the injectors flow more fuel,
also.  That's based on experiences with installing them in other
cars...  But I don't have any numbers here to confirm that, so it's
only a rumor for now.
