Gasoline fuel injection was old news by the time the vette came
along. 300SL , not to mention all the DB aircraft engines that were
setting speed and altitude records in the 30s
personally I prefer "409" anyway as a song, or the 389 3 deuce goat engine,
as an American muscle car engine

I can remember when 911s came in three flavors:
911T = carbs
911E = Einspritzer
911S = Super (Einspritzer but with more power)
About the time I was being born, fuel injection was a very rare
and expensive option on the Corvette.
Remember this?
