Your later 70s Chrysler lean burn setups were fairly effective, if memory serves. I'm away from home but there were articles of 70s Imperials easily besting biggies from Lincoln and Cadillac when so equipped, and that was sans overdrive or any kind of lockup. IIRC they were quoting mileage in the 17mpg range on the open road, bone stock in those 5000lb biggies.
