Ramcharger questions

Damn, where did all you guys come up with dodge ramchargers that got 14 mpg

My 84 360 4 barrel auto got 12 mpg at best

Unless this is going to be a daily driver would put a magnum 360 in it and hope for the best.

If you don't mine the work and want bett mileage the cummins is the way to go. Find an old clapped out truck with good drivetrain and swap it all over.

Have seen a few Ramchargers with cummins diesels. Too bad that the factory didn't off it, but the engine is really heavy for a 1/2 ton frame and suspension

Have had 3 full size Broncos, a 79 Trailduster, 84 Ramcharger and a 77 Blazer, not a one of them got better than 12 mpg some as little as 8 mpg. My 95 2500 with cummins has gotten up to 21 mpg but due to the speed I normally drive it is is a good 19-20 mpg average on the road by its self.
