Could have been better had I resisted the "need" to do some passing to get out of traffic !

51 mpg? Helium in tires? You weigh all of 80 pounds? Sail and nice wind? 

That's impressive!

Must be tuned to perfection. Didn't think that was possible. Do you still have the enrichment valves installed.

Enrichment "guts" are out.  Modified pilot needles.  Polished throttle bores and throttle-plates.  Sync'd to 7.5" hg and "Color Tuned".  Stock jetting !
I know I can get "60" but I can't "avoid" the throttle

Hi Scotch, can you point me to the instructions on how to modify the enrichment valves. I have seen it on here in the past im sure.
