I'm with you Jerry. I'd much prefer a 1mpg drop (or lack of gain I suppose) to a new engine.
Just not an envelope that's worth pushing to me.

Somewhat related:
When I was running around out west I found that richening up the mixture a tad to about 12.5:1 made a nice difference on hill pulling power. I forgot to reset it and noticed a good dip in mileage once I got back east!
