Depends on how I drive. I have a best of about 15 (very conservative) to about 5 when getting on it. I think I average around 10 to 12

:iagree: - Close enough, but I really don't measure it (don't care). The pleasure factor far outweights any costs.

Re: Gas Mileage (OHSIXX)

I get around 15 in town and 17 on the road. I'm considering myself lucky after reading the other post! :D

Re: Gas Mileage (ZL1powr)

ZL1 Power,

Your mileage gives me encouragement. Your roller cam is just a bit more conservative than the one I will be installing. I am getting about 15mpg now with the six speed's 2.52 overall ratio and factory L88 cam. If you're getting almost that mileage now with 3.70's, I should get at least 20 with my little 427! I think I can pay for the new roller cam with all the bar bets I'm gonna win! :lol:
