350, bored .060 over, cast flattop pistons, stock heads w/76cc chambers, Edelbrock Performer intake, Headers, 2.5" dual exhaust with Flowmasters, 204/214 duration cam with .443/.444 lift, HEI, Edelbrock 1406 carb. It has a TH350 and 3.07 gears for the rest of the drivetrain. I get 10mpg around town, and 12mpg on the highway. When it had a proplery working Qjet on it, i got 13.1 mpg around town, and im not sure on the highway, proably close to 16. But when my Qjet stoped working properly, i couldn't afford a new Qjet, so i bought the 1406. The truck runs alot better, has a little more power, but the gas mileage droped. I'm hoping to get a 700R4 in it this summer, and i might add some 3.73's if i can find a decently priced rearend with those gears....
