stock BS38's stock filters and boxes, B8ES plugs went to 125 main down from 127.5 and 40 pilot from 42.5 looks like 45 mpg was getting around 40mpg, cylinder wall temps 205 R 208 L, may try switching back to the 127.5 mains (because it's easy to do) and I want to see what effect it has opposed to the pilots,
