Fuel economy
Not knowing works best for me.
Headers made a big change for me in freed up power.
Also got Redline oil in Engine, Trans, and Diff.
I am planning on changing the intake and running fuel injection. I have also been thinking about putting a T-5 trans in it as well.
A side note I have been getting gas from Arco AM/PM & Flyers for years . Mostly because they are cheaper, but also cuz there more conveniently located to me. Now my newer car has 2 fuel consumption programs.
Consumption 1 I reset every fill-up.
Consumption 2 Is ongoing I reset it when I 1st got the car. It is my base line currently at 22.3 mpg.
So a few weeks ago I got gas at Chevron and I noticed when it was empty my consumption 1 was @ 23.6 mpg. So I filled back up at Chevron but I did not reset. At this point I think it dropped to 23.4 mpg still an improvement. So I went back to Arco am/pm this time I filled it with premium. (my car calls for mid grade) Can you believe it dropped to 19.8 mpg ! So I went back to Chevron And again 23._mpg back to Arco am/pm this time mid grade again 19._ So next time I am going to see what happens if I get premium @ Chevron
