This is the reason my Toyota Celica is priceless. It get's 40 mpg, costs about $16 to fill and I have to fill it twice a week at about 900 miles per week.
Are you still going to use your Vette as your daily driver after you have the engine done over? Aren't you eventually getting a 383 or 406 conversion done? Thought I remember seeing something about that?

I've got 4 more days of work which means 400 more miles of commuting this week, plus whatever other driving I do.
