I don't have to explain AZ. 117 Friday, 115 yesterday. Today should be
about the same. Ugh.
I'm tired of these summers. I have to start thinking about where I want to
spend summers when I retire.

Yes, the W116 280S is one of the LEAST desirable Mercedes ever built.

Folding-fin rockets are notoriously inaccurate. Unless all fins deploy at

Well, like I said, put an OM 603 or a late model Euro twin cam 6
gasser. THat late euro engine would be FI.
FOr some, carbs are ok. I don't like either, but a Euro carb engine
could work. Buy some webers.
You can seal it if you like.

The Zeniths were a pleasure to work with compared to the Solex 4A1. It is a
nightmare of a carburetor, guaranteed to run poorly even when working at it’s
best, and offering really lousy fuel economy.
The M130 in the former W123 LWB had one. I tore it off and did a Holley 5200
conversion.
A Holley of any sort would be an improvement. My buddy Hans had to
deal with them all the time in Germany, said they were horrible, even
the factory tech couldn't get them right.
The M110 wasn't bad itself, other than being rather fuel hungry and
terribly noisy due to solid lifters. More
Intake manifold and associated FI parts. I'd not bother with the D-
Jet, impossible to find parts by now and that one requires the correct
distributor, probably like finding hen's teeth forty years after they
stopped production.

Imagine if it were a manned, armed MiG taking evasive action on its way to
attack something important.
I think all current fighters have both guns and missiles? I know the F/A-18
has both.
F-4 Phantom was another missiles only fighter, and I think engagements in Mig
alley convinced fighter designers that missiles are nice, but guns are required.
