And, for us four wheelers, don't forget the 6.9 or 7.3L Powerstroke comes
with fuel injection on it already... so you can knock the price of a
ProJection off your cost/benefit chart... 

I joked to my Powerstroke technician friend about just snagging a 7.3 and
swapping it in when I was cursing my 196... More power (hp and torque), and
fuel injection... solve all my issues right there!  And better mileage! ;-)

Too bad I had that 304 lying around and not a 7.3...
