Hi Eric,
Nice to see another '78 manual around here. I really like the clean "unspoiled" look of the early types. What kind of interior do you have? Mine has the pascha cloth as you can see in my avatar. Take good care of the car and enjoy its miraculous roadholding. Don't be tempted do put more hp in it. The joy of driving these early cars should not come from the hp. For me, it's in the steering and general feel of the car.

Nice car. Looks to be in great shape. Clean in side and out. Nice pick up. Have fun wih it and I love the stock look! I am planning to keep my car as stock looking as possible and only make mechanical up grades as needed.

Welcome Erik, you will find FL has a lot of owners.
Take whatever a previous owner told you with a grain of salt, and check that all the high pressure fuel lines are in good shape with the proper high pressure fuel injection hoses.
What do you have in mind for the EFI and clutch, and why mess with the clutch?

Well I have not issue with mine yet and I have not taken it apart yet so I'm open to keeping it. But the cost to replace the duel disk vs a single disc converstion seems to be about the same amount of money and thier is a good aftermarket for it.
