After ripping out the 4.11 in my 59 Corvette, I replaced it with a.308 for $25. 65 in first,105 in second, 140 in third, and God only know what in fourth. Evendriving like atool on occasions I still got 21 MPG.
I liked my Z car with a setup that gave me 30-60-90-120-150 at 6k in each gear although the top gear would not reach redline. Got 28 highway in that one without any hypermiling techniques. I did P&G (engine off one time only) when a new fan belt broke at the seam and I had to get back 10 miles without any more than air flow driving the water pump through the fan clutch.
regards
Mech
