It has been a while, does something need to be modded to work with those bars?

Are they still available new? I have been thinking of getting a little more upright in the future.

Same here but I didn't know that about chlorine. Sure am glad we didn't have the pump. 😀

Elixxir, now there is a name that I haven't seen in a while.

It is my understanding the a carb header will not fit on a FI Bird without some mods. If I remember right, the radiator had to be moved or something. Of course I could be wrong as it has been a long time since the bikes were new.

My 97 does. 😉

Super, take a photo and post so we know what not to do to a header.

The way I understand it is that the motor can make more HP because you can run more timing but you are burning more fuel. I see it on new Mustangs that they run E-85 with a tune for it and make more power than gas. Where it really shines is when you add boost.

They can make more hp if they are tuned to take advantage of it but I'm not sure that your average car is as mpg seems to have a higher priority than hp.

Colder air has more oxygen so it would make more HP which would let you back of the gas peddle to drive the same mph there by using less gas. That is how it played out in my head anyway. ☺️

I get really bad mileage in the winter but I only drive 4 miles to work in my 4wd truck and I think most of the loss is to frictional due to thick oil.

Yes, isn't it great that the gov. makes us use fuel that gets less MPG?

There you go, good find.

Got to love a pup.

97 fuel pumps are pretty reliable just like their FPR but that don't help this brother out.
