The 1978 DeVille has a 7.0 liter engine, electronic fuel injection is
optional.  I have three, my dad has one, Grandma has one, and that doesn't
count the ones we used to have.. ;-)  Or the parts cars.  A properly tuned,
carbureted DeVille with decent valve guides, driven prudently should get
~17mpg city, 29-21 highway.  Or about three mpg better than the average full
size SUV of today.  Hmmm...

Yeah, its off topic, but I just couldn't resist at the mention of the 78
DeVille.  Maybe I could mount the C500 motherboard up under the dash with an
LCD screen for a computerized control center..
