Fuel economy and the new performance engine



Stephen just got back from Arizona, and our black automatic 'test' car fitted with the new high performance engine, exhaust, shocks, springs, and a few other secret projects averaged 26 mpg for the 1200 or so miles highway trip from Phoenix to Houston. Having no real highway experience with a stock automatic I can't say if this is great or just good, but I think it's a bit less than a stock automatic. I used to average around 28-29 in my stock five-speed on long highway trips (Phoenix-Nashville, Phoenix-Cincinnati, Houston-St. Louis).

YMMV :-)
