I think it can. I have been slowly advancing the timing in response to another symptom. I think I can bring it back though.

Plugs look really good thou. You can tell the gas has few to no additives. Burns clean.
do you have a fuel pressure regulator?? how many PSI of fuel are you feeding that carb with??

I've always been told it should look whiter like it's burning hotter. Not sure if theres any merit but i was getting 13 mpg with my old 83 chevy 4wd. Of course that was a built 350 and not a big block though 
Yep, have a regulator on it. Set at 5psi currently. That's when its setting at idle of course.

If I were getting 13 right now, I wouldn't be looking any deeper into the situation. For the record, I'm getting 5.

yeah, I think it can be better. Too early to accept a number like that.

hop over to a local speed shop and inquire about a dyno or wideband tune, it'll dial in the fuel economy rather quickly and shouldn't cost more than one or two hours dyno time.
yes, yes, yes :d

That would be mahvolus! My 'Burb w/a 12V. Damn that would be nice. Hell, I already have a 40 gal. tank and 2 yellow tops in it.
Fender vents are these peel and stick abominations:
I regularly see an 8 series BMW and 300Z that have been defiled by these.
