Hi Mark,
Thanks for the feedback. I previously monkeyed with 2 different crude
prototype Hydrogen generators on my 1989 Grand Wagoneer and before the PCV
unit developed a leak, I gained about 4+ MPG's for a partial tank of gas.
I'm on the watercar yahoo group and they are working on some different
designs for the generators that seem to be much more promising.
Anyhow, I just spoke with Holley Tech and the Mile Dial system is
adjustable about 10 jet sizes, with the minimum being the current main jet
size. I'd need a 50 jet, if I wanted to adjust between 50-60. Also, the
bowl gaskets are no longer available for the Mile Dial bowls (different
than std holley bowls), so I think I will shy away from that system.
Perhaps the Percy's system will be better.

Yahoo has a group called wastewatts that has been beating the hydrogen
issue to death recently.
You may want to read up on it. They say it is energy neutral or even
negative, as in it takes more energy to create then it produces!
I don't know.
Whatever you do remember, it's all in the mixture.
too lean, is too lean and won't help fuel mileage.
I'd put an O2 gauge in it to keep and eye on things while tuning.
I believe those kits you mentioned work, they just did not sell well to
performance guys...
