The previous owner had installed a heat activated one on the cross beam in front of the engine, but it had no pressure left and I prefer a manually activated one. So I figured why not leave it there,...

I agree. I don't want to change my carb, since the new one will have to be set up as well, so I'll be back at the start in some way.

MPG with 351 Ford Racing crate engine

Hi!

Just wondering what mpg I should get from my 351 Ford Racing crate engine with Holley Speed Demon 750 carb.

Is 12-13 mpg for normal street driving not way on the high side?

Thanks for all the tips.

Engine still seems to be running a bit rich, my mechanic will look into that soon.

It comes with a remote. You push the button and it disconnects the battery. Easy and cheap theft protection without the need to open and close the boot to get to the battery switch.
