Default RE: gasser vs elevation

Fuel viscosity will not change at all and specific gravity will not change substantially for that small of an elevation change. If a carb is well adjusted to begin with a 5,600' change in altitude would require only a small adjustement at most. Our carbs pretty much self compensate to very high altitude levels. This is something I deal with daily.
