Would an O.S. tuned pipe, or a hotter plug help you think? We usually run a Jammin Hyper EFRA 2645 exhaust; as it seems to make the engines run faster, but we're having the same fuel economy problems with that exhaust. We're planning to be at Brendale on Sunday, will you be there?
Kindest regards,

nova or Max 2601 or 2604 with med conical manifold should help. i have used 2652 nova pipe, and i dont get much more power but it uses more fuel. i really think these 2640+ pipes are really aimed for use with Ins Boxes.
added head shim can add more top end revvs, that with leaner mixture, a long straight could see other problems. OS TZ unmodded shold make run time easy, try different pipe and manifold, i have gained 20secs plus just from going back to the 2601.
