I wrote that article about carbs in the year 2000, for the Mazspeed 1st gen website. That guy stole it, changed a few words, and didn't even give me any credit for all the effort I put into writing it.

I suggest you contact Crit, he's on this board too. Thanks for the article, it's one of the best I've run across that is so broad based. Vintage Rotaries is finally back online and could use all the support we can give them.
