318 4 bbl and intake upgrade

Lowcar said

putting a four barrel on a other wise stock small valve head 318 won't give enough difference that you'll be able to tell in the seat of a 3400 lb car. but what it will make a difference on is how many times you fill up at the pump

Here is the fun part about our hobby, when you experiment and come up with working combinations, it's all smiles per mile.

Example:

Stock '69 318 only thing added was the Edelbrock 1406 4 bbl carb, 100% stock all the way down to the factory single exhaust and manifolds.

318 / 727 / 2.94 rear gears
20 mpg
Some would say that's a heavy car, it's all how you have it set up.
