So the underdrives freed up HP and boosted your MPG? Cool, I've got to get
me a set!

-pulley and flexi fan improved MPG about 2 points. After reading the article
-here: http://www.vetteweb.com/tech/0204vet_rockers/ I am wondering if I
-should swap the stock 1.6's out for 1.5's. The article implies that I could
-actually gain torque, with a sacrifice to upper rpm power. I can live with
-that, I don't race the thing, I just drive it. And before someone suggests
-that I buy a Neon, I am looking to modify my 'paid for' truck, not pay for
-something else. Any thoughts?
