From what I have heard if you go carb'd you throw the mpg advantage of LSx down the drain. Thats what made me keep the dream of the FI.

Thats what I figured... I thought about going this route, but FI is just so much better all around (except on the wallet). Glad to see you made it back in one piece Matt!

I got 18-20 mpg on Power Tour last year, but mine has been slightly massaged with fuel economy not being a priority.
