Hear, hear, brother. Not only does it consume cubic dollars, but it's also a huge time suck. It seems that most of the stuff I've done, I've had to do two or there times in different ways before I was satisfied. Several times over the past 30 years I've thought about selling mine as a project, but I started driving it again regularly about 3 years ago, and at this point, after all the time and money I've spent, I'll just keep it.
I recently was looking at distributor parts, and I noted that the simple plastic "dust cover" (noise suppressor) inside the CDI dizzys was almost $50! Just for a simple, no-moving-parts piece of plastic. Nuts...
