HEI... here we go...

Did you see this?
Yes - maybe not that one specifically but... In any case I read/saw somewhere that some control modules emit different frequencies/wavelength (or some other kind of magic) so I was reluctant getting the whole package just to have to swap out the control module anyway. Since this way my first HEI install I opted to follow the recipe @slantsixdan posted over on slantsix.org with the parts he mentioned as I felt it was a safe and thoroughly researched path forward.

Plus, making the thing out of all the parts was fun, and though I had to do some minor modifications I enjoyed the problem-solving/building process... it gave me something to do instead of sit'n in front of the TV at night :)
