I added my VGs almost like Richard Pike did his on his Classic.  They reduced my clean stall speed from 40 to 36 mph.  It takes about half of the drop speed away when I do a full stall landing where the tailwheel hits first.  I need to do more testing with partial and full flap full stall landings to see if the VGs are equallally a benefical in all configurations.  I am thinking and hoping that somewhere around 60 mph cruise that I will attain a very efficient fuel burn.  That would be a plus because at full cruise, I burn 3.5 gl/hr.  I would be very happy with a fuel burn of 2.5 gl/hr at 60mph cruise.            Vic in Sacramento
