OK, I did a test run and hypermiled my best EOC technique, also did a coastdown test to compare with base values.
Coastdown test, multiple runs in each direction
February was without blocks and tail.
May is with blocks and tail.

This was a lot of work and careful careful accelleration followed by long coasts. It is going to be tough to match this, there were some long drawn out coasts to work my way up to 59 mpg. However, with additional mods, I am certain I can beat 60 mpg. I might have gotten 60mpg this time if I had stayed out for another hour and ran some more country roads.
103% over EPA, if I calculated that right.
