Fuel Efficient '72 Chevy K20

Looking to get the best gas mileage out of my '72 Chevy K20, it is pretty much stock. The original engine has just recently been rebuilt. This is what I am thinking of doing, if money was no object:

1. Banks Twin Turbo (if it fits, currently they show only '80+, but then say any 350 SB, confusing)
2. Edelbrock E-Street EFI w/ Sump Pump
3. Gear Vendor Under/OverDrive
4. Custom Dual Exhaust 3" Mandrel bent 304 Stainless Steel w/ H-Pipe & Magnaflow Mufflers
5. Replace the old all-terrain tires with some low resistance highway tires
6. Add a tonneau cover to the bed.

Is there anything else I am missing? Is there anything else I can do to improve my fuel economy, other than removing the lead from my foot?
