back whit my old vp44 i was lucky to fetch 360 miles out of a tank
when i put my new vp44 i jumped right to the mid 400 zone
and now whit smarty on 8 and edge on 2-5 i did 3 time in a row 505-510-505

of course they were mostly higway miles but im rather happy anyway

i went from 12 miles a gallon to 15 to 16.6 miles a gallon
i aired up my tire a tad today,they were a little low maybe it will help too

right on, Congrats!!! [sm=icon_cheers.gif]

isnt it funny how more power will get you more mileage? logic would say that if you turn up the fueling, your mileage would go down...[&:] I'm happy to see mine in the mid 18's easily with only 1x at 19.00 mpg. maybe someday...

keep track and let us know, I'd be interested. I have a GDP walbro kit sitting in the garage waiting to go on, probably sometime this summer I'll get to it.

Damn Wolligator, what kind of HP numbers are you shooting for? You're going to have a pretty savage ride from the sounds of things.

You'll never be happy. I know you, you know it and so does everybody else...

I got 20mpg on my last fill up. I have been trying to see what I can get out of my truck. I drove 203 miles and put 10.1 gallons in it. I have the edge and have the setting on low smoke and best mileage.
