Anyway, I think I have a fairly accurate measurement now that is 14.5 mpg @ 65 mph average speed. That's over a 156 mile distance. That's not as great as I hoped for, but not too bad. After talking with Cliff, this carb may be a little rich on the primaries. I should have the other carb back together soon to Cliff specs with the kit he sent me and we'll see how that does.



my 2022 chevy work van gets 14mpg with all the computers and 6 speed trans. i think your doing ok.
