Be careful with the vacuum leaks to get lean burning. There is an area from 50 degrees rich to peak egt that you can damage pistons and valves at higher power settings. If you are able to get leaner than that you will be good to go. Also if your calibrated leak is not in a central location you may be just getting one or two cylinders lean and not all of them.
