Quote: The thing about THIS site in particular, is that experience with something is of little to no use. Because when you say something that others don't agree with, they are going to search out enough "experts" to debunk your input and say "see, I told you".
Just like all this talk about factory cars........I DON'T care. We are not talking about factory cars.
What I DO know, is that EFI race cars with high HP applications are VERY sensitive to noise and how they are wired. I found this out by having serious issues with a customers car and searching out some help to solve that problem. Rewiring the car with the "floating" ground system FIXED that car. I have since wired several other cars with that system and had ZERO problems. I guess I could have "argued" with the guy that told me to do that and tried to shoot his theory all full of holes..........but instead, I noticed that he had a LOT of really fast cars out there that he had wired up. "Hey, this guy must know something" was my thoughts........he did.
Bottom line, I was only trying to pass on some information that worked for me, NOT get in a theoretical debate. So guys just need to do what they want or are comfortable with..........because it really doesn't matter to me

I'm not disputing that your fix repaired your issues. I guess I'm coming off wrong. We both agreed that the roll cage works in many instances. My digging was to find out why your method overcame the issue. So far I haven't been able to understand why it worked, which obviously it has. There are different methods to diagnose a problem. Use scientific knowledge or try things and see what works. Both have their merits. Many times there is no choice. We just have to work it out and see what happens. What I think is beneficial is learning how all systems function. Hopefully this discussion has done that. I'm still curious. If I knew why your method fixed your issue I might be able to use that knowledge to repair a future problem. I didn't mean to seem argumentative, just trying to learn. Doug
