L-48 350, HEI, Plugs gapped at 60, Timing set by ear, 1406 Edelbrock carb leaned 2 steps on the chart in the book, 5w30 motor oil, turbo 400 Trans, 3.08 rear end, Accel 2 stage oil charged air cleaner. 55 lbs of air in the tires that don't have an agressive profile.

Things that I am going to try next: 0w30 ynthetic motor oil, syntetic gear lube. Fumigating the fuel with propane. Vortec Heads.

Huck has basically the same set up as me, but has a 5 speed stick and is getting 20 mpg.

Here is a link to someone that is getting over 18 mpg:

wish I was closer (course you have hear that before.)

If I do not sell it locally, I might be able to bring it with when I drive back to Chicago in a few weeks. ( I still have not decided whether I will go the old route 66 way or the northern route through denver)

$50. This is in Phoenix price only. It is taking up room in the back of my burb and I don't want to store it.

68 Suburban · 06-01-2003, 08:15 AM

$40 pickup in Phoenix only. If I decide to ship later, this will not be the price.
