I purchased the LM-1 with the exhaust clamp and the LMA-2 RPM converter (the autobox was not available 2 years ago). The clamp works great on a Cobra's side pipes. I use the LMA-2 to log RPM and I also have a MAP sensor hooked up to log vacuum. One of these day I'm going to build a bracket to allow me to mount a TPS sensor on the carb and monitor throttle position as well. I think it wold also be advantageous to figure out a way to monitor secondary throttle opening on vacuum secondary carbs. The trick will be finding something to monitor that without adding resistance to the linkage.

The best part of this system is the software that is provided (logworks). Rather than trying to look at the LM-1 while driving simply use it to record the results and download them to you computer. The software provides the results in graphic and analog gauge forms that are easy to set up and read. Once you master this thing you will never tune without one again. Again, some of the best money I've ever spent.

I put a screen shot of the logworks software in my gallery. It is a run in 2nd gear from 3,000rpm to 6,400rpm. The 3 imputs displayed ate AFR, RPM and Manifold Vacuum.
