Took her out on an 85 mile run yesterday. New plugs gapped at .044. Ran 90 octane zero ethanol, from "Speedy Stop". Running 4000 rpm at 70 mph, 4300 rpm at 80 mph. Have a 180 degree thermostat. Ran at about 190 at 70 mph and 200 at 80 mph. Never got hotter, driving her hard! No backfires except when letting off gas, to be expected. No acceleration hesitation at all! I think she still needs some tweaking?!
