Just some more things to think about. Though it can be expensive, especially if you go full anal like I did
I understand what you're saying and would like to know a little bit more. When you're talking about heavy fuel and lean fuel mixture what numbers are we talking about? The coils I linked seem to be able to handle extremely rich fuel mixtures (I'm not sure about lean as TTT didn't really tell me if he tested 'em there) without issue.

When the plug is fouled do you see a decrease in performance? I would think that continually firing when the plug is carbon fouled would just result in additional fouling becoming present on the plug leading to the same effect as the HEI just later on in the plug lifetime.

MPG's; I would think would be more indicative of driving style rather than spark energy, but if you have data to support it than so be it.
