1973 Dart Swinger

I think it's probably 2.73:1 gears in a 7.25 rear end.
That's what my 73 has in it, but it's possible you have an 8.25.
I went from 17-18mpg to 25 when I changed to an OD trans and left the rear gears.
(hiway car, not a racer of any kind)
Is your overdrive standard or auto? Mine is a stock 318 auto Would like to leave it stock but would like to improve gas mileage.
