Bill,

 I don't know the 801 wing but my experience on a  Legal Eagle and a 701 leads me to suggest that you try 8 %. That works great on  both of those wings. It's possible that at 6% the vortex is "flattening out"  against the remainder of the leading edge with consequent loss of  effectiveness.

 I tried vgs under the HS of my 701. I lost 2.5 mph  and about 10-12% ROC. The only benefit that I could see was a lighter pitch feel  but no increased effectiveness. I removed them in favor of the increased  performance over a lighter elevator.

 FWIW

 Joe
