I like to be different... life is too short not to try different approaches... plus I figure being 19 I can use any learning experiences I can get. I try to be reasonable and understand some things are better left alone but modern, or in this case more modern than 71, technology is worth exploring if we want to keep these old cars going... my generation is losing interest in the old way of doing things and if we want to get them interested in something besides rice then we have to modernize. That being said yes it is probably a bit much but oh well its only $... cant take it with us.
