Thanks Bugz, 10.2 on the way there but the computer was still in break-in mode and I was doing 80 most the way. Took it easier on the way home 68-72 MPH milage came out to 12.5, LS1, 700R4, Atlas twin stick transfer case and 353 rear end. 16-1750 RPM in OD on the Freeway. Computer finished its break in mode on the way there it was down shifting a lot until then, it held OD most the way home with the exception of a few long uphill sections. Gearing might be one set too high, going to give it awhile and then decide if I am changing them.
