I have a Trick Flow stage 1 roller cam in mine with 221/224 (@.050") duration and 112 lobe separation. Vacuum is 10 in Hg at 800 rpm and the idle is nice sounding but not too lumpy. My KB is pullied for about 6 psi boost. I have never been able to get a good mileage number from the car as I can't keep my foot out of the gas long enough. But with 'fun' driving I get 12 to 15 mpg. It would probably be closer to 20 mpg on a long highway run without the occasional spurt to the high side of 100mph. I am considering installing a more aggressive cam to help the high rpm HP and cut some of the low rpm torque.
