Default Improve gas mileage on a 427 so ?

Hello guys
A question that would get me into trouble.
How can we improve the consumption of a 427 so? I already hear some laughing and I expect to have ironic comments but, but ...

In the USA you are very lucky (for now) with the fuel price. In Europe, regarding the price of a single gallon, we pay more than $6.30 per gallon ...
Ok ? You understand now that my question is not that silly?

I have several Cobra 427s in maintenance and my customers often ask me this question and I am sure there are other solutions than "an egg on the accelerator pedal ...."

A smaller carburetor? (even at the expense of some horses)
Any other ideas?

Let me know your expérience
Many thanks
Eric
