Fiat Dino Forum (FDF)

I get it! In Crazyfornia (California), SMOG testing is a very big deal here, unless the car is as old as the Dinos. I must admit, there is really something pleasant about not smelling like a tailpipe or gas station after a drive. One suggestion... I noticed on the Dino, If I set the carb's to a good...
