Tony, I never noticed the dual quads with the Fuel Injection script.

The color makes this model a real standout.

It looks like a nice model. Great color. I passed on it because I had the DM version.

Back then it was not unusual for owners to replace the troublesome Rochester FI with 2 quads.

Have it, love it.
