I get around 20mpg on the open road with my Mustang, lacking overdrive, with a best of nearly 22.

Conversions using Ford's AOD transmission, featuring a ,67:1 overdrive gear and lockup, are reasonably common and tend to yield around 25ish mpg with a 302, and about the same with a T5 5-speed stick.
