I have your Westy's twin, an '84 called Hershey.


Good post about the 2.3.  I always wondered about the mileage, and I wonder
how it would perform if you installed DJ-code ECU and dizzy.  My DJ-code
engine returns 19mpg during a loaded 70mph cruise.


Has Go-Westy tweaked the air flow sensor at all to compensate for the larger
displacement?
