You're not getting into lean burn, I'm guessing. And you're not driving it in the optimal load%, I'm guessing. Remind me, you have a vacuum gauge mounted in the car and you use it to gauge the load on the engine during acceleration, seeking 75-80% load? Do you have a way to monitor AFR so you can tell when/if the car slips into lean burn?
