Respectfully, I don't really care about MPG. lol At this point in my life I'm just glad I can go to the pumps and get gasoline. With the way the world is I figure governments will find a way to push us out of the hobby. I'm not sure what I have for videos. I'll look into it.
You have some valuable points and maybe my engine just needs more tuning. I don't know. It runs so nice and performs so beautiful I leave it along. Just the maintenance each year. I have KRE heads on it with Dave's road paver. 245/252 I think. It made close to 600 hp on the dyno. 32 deg. I am running a vacuum advance on it. Next time I'm out I will disconnect it see how it acts. It doesn't like 2000 rpm. In O/D it starts to lug in lower rpm. It is a blast to drive for what I'm doing.
