Hey. Don't discount my V8. With very few mods I'm pulling down 25 MPG on a 50 mile round trip commute with only 9 miles of highway. There is something to be said for torque and high gearing. Soon I'll be datalogging the OBD1 computer and then reprogramming chips. I feel I have a pretty good platform for a "larger" vehicle. I've learned a lot from thirdgen.org. It's a 3rd generation Camaro/Firebird website with VERY knowledgable people.
