Gas prices..comon that will allways be an issue, plus you slap on a good MultiPoint Fuel Injection and get 15mpg easy 350 or 454 desn't matter..The only reason a 454 gets worse gas millage is cuz it is alot more fun to THROTTLE OUT

hehheee
Speaking of F-gasprices I paid 3.99 for diesel this morning..75bucks for 17gal
