The AF meter is the only way toget the lean mixture to work. The ignition must have more advance to burn the lea mixture, but you still need a rich mixture for acceleration. All this can be done with one of Charlies distributors, and an Edelbrock 500 4 bl/
I was fortunate to ride in Richards Kunc 53 Ht withthe AF meter in my hand and watch the meter in the mid 15's in cruise.22mpg in a 276 l-100 engine. Impresive.
