Fuel economy?
Get a Diesel!
I get around 6 mpg with my 48IDA carbureted 427 S/O.
I must say that I am all the time going blam,blam on the gas pedal and the accelerator pumps and the brakes hardly get a rest.
Cruising will probably bring that figure down, but as much as I set out to behave and do steady driving, I end up driving like roller coaster.
A 427 with Webers is addictive.
Fuel injection does not have the immediacy of the carb.
