What kind of mileage are you looking for?

Honestly, unless you are putting a ton of miles on this thing, any... if any... mileage that you save will take years to compensate the cost of the carb, manifold, and gaskets and such...

I'd say if you're happy with the way it runs, leave it be. Think about upgrading to a bigger carb and manifold if you want more HP, not if you want more gas mileage... the economics of it don't add up.
