Yeah...I know it's never going to get amazing mileage but I figure it should get better than a school bus.

It's not so bad when I think about my old Jeep that got 13mpg with a 6 cylinder and only weighed 3000#. My problem is my 'other car' is a C30!

Seems pretty normal to me, just kinda slow. I really need to get a vacuum gauge and see what it says. It SOUNDS like it's running great. It's got a shift kit too, (at least I hope so or something else is broken

) that's supposed to help with gas isn't it?
Several years ago I had to drive a C20 with a 454/TH400 to the DMV....while it was only running on 7 cylinders and I could only get first gear. I'm pretty sure that thing got better highway mileage!
