My Barracuda averages 10 mpgs with a healthy 340, 4 speed, 3.91 gears and a 26" tire.

I think some people post their best (steady speed on a long flat highway) and this throws people off.

My worn out 340 fish (3.91, 26.5", stripped interior) gets 5-6 1/8 mi passes on about 2 to 2 1/2 gallons. Is that good or bad mileage? Maybe the stroker with a 830 will do better.

I am considering replacing the 5 gal race tank that site where a spare would with a stock tank. Will still need the elec pump. Substitute for milage - bigger tank, don't drive as far. The way I see it is these are hot rods, not econoboxes.
