So basically, nothing.
Been reading through all the gas mileage threads. All us poor gas mileage guys looking for ways to gain a few MPG. But in the end, it looks like there is not much you can do really. You can covert to an LS engine, that's what you can do. You'll gain 4 or 5 MPG doing that. But other than that, there is pretty much nothing you can do to improve your gas mileage. Sound about right?
And this is coming from one of the few who are driving a fuel injected one. My 87 TBI 350 gets 14MPG. Its old, and it gets a lot better than you guys with the 454, granted. But man. I like to drive the truck, and I can't really afford to. I get to drive my wife's squeak toy of a Toyota Yaris sedan cause it gets 34 MPG city. Sorry about the negativity but these fuel prices are getting really old. And, its not like they're ever going back to $1.50. We had a brief hope in 2008, but that was only cause the stock market crashed so gas had to crash with it.
I don't know how you guys getting 9MPG even drive at all. I've been looking through all the mileage mods that you can do, and after spending a lot of money I'd be lucky if I netted 2 MPG. Sorry rant over
