NOW add in the 8 gear auto and the high rear end with a 2.14 to 2.23 I think I will be able to see much more…

If you are shooting for 20ish mpg highway I would just swap in a Chevy 4.3L V6 and call it a day. Your 1993 G20 with the 4.3L was rated at 20 mpg highway from the factory. 4.3L V6's are a dime a dozen in junkyards.
I've done 20-22 mpg with my 2004 Chevy Astro (before the lift)
