Hi mate,

a few things i have done to increase my fuel economy(noteall these mods only increased the fuel marginally, but it all adds up right):

1. fitted a pertronix electronic ignition system. does away with the points and makes it run alot better.
2. changed the exhaust to a straight through system, fitted extractors
3. gave my carby a really good clean!(not modification but maintenance is good too)
4. got a pro to tune it. didnt cost much, but it was the best by far. i get about 430kms per tank(about 90ltrs) which is about 20ltrs per 100, not too bad when you consider it equates to the cost of about 12 ltrs petrol to the 100, which is no worse than commodores and the like.

Make Sure the electrics IE leads plugs Dizzy are all in great nick, a poor
electrical system will result in poor economy. also take the sinkers off
your shoe laces. Get it tuned properly.
