    I averaged about 9mpg mixed. I ran 3.91s, happy small block, low gear set, 3,500stall/3900flash converter....oh and a heavy foot. I daily drove that thing like they were supposed to be driven for two years on 91/100 (35%) gas and loved it.  :ylsuper: :burnout:

    I've never checked what kind of mpg mine gets, but I would estimate it to be someware between bad and really bad. Especially since I have a pretty heavy foot.  :burnout: :bigsmile:

     It's interesting to see how the small blocks compare to the big blocks. Hopefully we'll get some small and big block strokers in here too.
     Ok, Kelly and Oldschool are in the gallons per 1/4 mile category  :ylsuper: :roflsmiley:

    Challenger R/T - 440 Magnum, TorqueFlite-727, 3.05 Gears in OD = 15-17mpg (driving normal, speeding if I want or need to etc). With a light foot, going for as far as possible, I'd be closer to the magic 20mpg mark, but, that doesn't count. Thrashing it everywhere I'd be guessing around 10mpg. lol I mean foot down at every chance.

    It is the SMILES per gallon that count.  :dogpile:
