Based upon Shag going from a Holley 750 DP to a 650 DP and then to a 650 vacumn secondary carb, so far I have gone from 10.5 mpg to 14.5 mpg and this is after driving to the coast to have lunch with Opentracker with Abe as being the co pilot and then back home via the mountains. I think with the upcoming trip to knotts this weekend which is basically very flat I should be able to improve the mileage even better.
 
Thats a huge difference !!!
But if I can calculate , 10.5 mls a gallon is still thirsty IMO. ( 22.50 liters / 100 Km )
Mountain roads and a sporty attitude ,then I can live with that fuel consumption. :confu

So whats the ultimate goal? You have a number in mind, or just get better than what you had?

No goal except to chase naked hot chicks through out the neighborhood and see if I can get a little better gas mileage.
 
If you'd wear a pork chop around your neck, you might attract them skanks instead of chasing them away...that should reduce your gas mileage.
 
WOW....only 14.5 mpg. I don't know what I'd do if my mileage dropped that low even with my "driving like I stole it" style.... :pbj
 
I got 12 mpg yesterday hauling a trailer load of cabinets to Kansas City....against the 40mph winds no less!
