Not Ranked

I have a '68 FE Side oiler with aluminum heads/intake, 10:1 compression and a Holley 750. Mine dynoed at 482 HP/502 Ft Lbs torque at the crank. I've not run a tank of gas out solely on the highway so don't know what that would be, but driving country roads with a lot of stops, starts and some spirited driving I average 11 mpg.
