What did you see that looked D-jet? I didn't see anything that  looked 
right, to me. No pressure sensor, L-jet style injectors, L-jet type  
air-flow metering, etc. The variable fuel pressure regulator was also  
an L-jet feature.


The  trigger points coming off the oil pump drive on the front of the 
engine were 1  clue. Looking thru the Chevy Service manual (came witch the car), 
and seeing  all of the same common parts like the 5 pin TPS, injectors 
(including CS  injector and temp switch), the head temp sensor, little clues like 
that. As  for the MPS, GM used something else for it (a little more modern 
from  Rochester Products), but it still had a similar function (according to 
the  service manual). Like I said, it's more of a modified D-jet, with GM 
and  Cosworth , working with what was existing at the time. I didn't get a 
lot of  time to study it, as I drove it from western Minnesota to Texas. It 
was  the first one I saw in person though, and got asked about it a lot at 
rest  areas and gas stations. It was hard to answer some questions, since I 
really  didn't know a lot about the car (I was just hired to drive it). It did  
take me back to my youth though, when I used to own a Vega or 2. ;-)
