Post by: lukieg on December 18, 2011, 09:45:34 pm
 Ok so i found out the 366 had holes in the thermostats.. which could cause some of my issues, since its beloz zero everyday now.. plus no enclosed air cleaner with a  heat thingy... so im hoping with the addition of those items... it may help,sound right?? Oh also I have a 600 4160 holley.. is it possible to lean down the primaries anymore to get the mileage up some aswell? Thanks gents

what are you gettign for fuel mileage cause so far that i see the best a 366 could get is 9 which my dually and another persons c-60 get so i dont think no matter what you do 9mg is the limit for fuel mileage high

 Yes but its been getting worse and worse as the cold draws in. Im gettin like 4-5 its sick.. The main jets are 64 stock... but with the stock tall decks low reving set up.. could i get away with maybe 55-57 primarys to lean it down more?
