i dont think were talking about the same guys … their located in Oakville  
their really cool guys , even give you the option of driving the car on the dyno yourself. They have good service and their prices are unbeatable.

my old sohc after i re-built it got 800km per tank on 87…

Jr. thats nuts. my truck gets 350km per tank if im luckey…

when i ajust my idle timing ect… i just do it by ear, i know it may not be the best but i dont belive that setting a 20 yearold motor to oe specs is the right thing to do all the time…

on my old SOHC, i just cranked the Dizzy all the way to the right lol. i think it was like -13 BTDC, cant remember, but with only a cone filter, and a catback 2.5" exhaust it somehow got 550 to the tank mixed driving, and made 140 to the wheels, and that was with an exhaust manifold leak… i have to pull up the dyno sheet if i can find it lol.

EDIT: this was on 87 octane from pioneer lol.
