I am really new to all this. If underrated it correctly, the 2.4 signal is for the video feed back to the uniy. The 5.8 is for the acual phantom, w or w/o video
Is this correct or am i I missing something?
Is this correct?

I believe that boy is going to be checking some video forum and then cursing the moderators for censoring him.

no, no , NO sprouseod. You have it confused with the video inverted feed back loop. The signal for the video feed back to the uniy is 1.9 and the acual phantom is 3.8. Nuf said...

No, in English units, the acual uniy is 2' 54". The phantom is a function of the variability of random primes.http://www.slate.com/articles/health_and_science/do_the_math/2013/05/yitang_zhang_twin_primes_conjecture_a_huge_discovery_about_prime_numbers.html

I don't know what this is all about, am I correct or am I missing something?

I would just plug it in and see what happens.
Wear safety glasses of course, and shield important body parts.

. . . or you might transmogrify the midichlorian ratio to its inverse . . . requiring a mythryllispanner wrench to correct . . . and those are a real bear to get these days (unless you know somebody).

Well, the 2.4 if its supercharged, otherwise, I'd go with the 5.8 dbl 4 barrel.

My '95 Roadmaster had a 5.8 L supercharged. it weighed 4500 pounds, but could still give you whiplash when you gunned it. Sorry to stray off topic.
