Did you test the DCA-4 coolant level and adjust it?

Without it being at the proper level, you WILL have cylinder corrosion issue some time in the future.

First cylinder #8 will get pinholes letting coolant into the motor oil, not long after you sleeve #8, cylinder #7 will go out and you will be broke chasing pinholes!

I believe sleeving 2 cylinder back then cost about as much as a new block.

Verified 19 mpg city taking off slow as hell the shutting down at red lights, and with the radiator grill blocked flush, no bed cover, "drag shoot" mirrors on I get 24 mpg at 50 to 55 mph on the freeway empty!
However, with a bed cover, no mirrors and Hydroxy
