3.0l auto is not a good recipe for fuel mileage unfortunately. that engine may be bullet proof but it is neither powerful or efficient, particularly when mated with an automatic transmission. Do all you can with aero mods, an electric fan conversion, weight savings, and driving technique but i would bet your ceiling is around 30-35 mpgs.
