Wow, you have me beat for sure! I found anything above 67-68 mph and my SC is engaged full time. I have not tested my MPG with the FSC pulley yet but will soon.
I was getting 23.5-24 mpg with a 120 mile cruise at 75 mph average. All at about 70 feet above sea level. Dennis and I both run the same big valve ported race heads and thats when the MPG increase came.
We found a lot of the stock intake valves have bad casting centers on them and this tends to make for a bad factory valve job (loss of power and MPG).

My mileage in that first pic is with the fixed pulley. Probably could have eked out a few more MPG with the clutched. Next time I'll just pull off the s/c belt, lol.
Love them ported heads!
