Re: engine swap advice

There is no way to swap a motor efficient enough to justify the expense. If that's all you are after, either buy a beater that gets good MPG or work to improve what you have.

A good tune on the truck and carb will help. Take a look at what gears you are running since you have an OD tranny. You should be able to pull 17 MPG average.
