I thought about the topic a little more. After I have replaced my daily driver with a reliable build I will pull the D15Y hook it up to massive radiator fins along its body and run a lean bench test. On a stable non-moving platform i could limit variables and changes. Also I could much more carefully measure fuel consumption(on a mass balance) while the engine runs or for quickie tests just add a very small exact amount of fuel and time how long the engine is able to run.

I changed my mind because my D has very little life left in it(50-60K)... and the J block should have at least half its life time left(100K miles) if not much more.
