Big block 540 gas mileage
Lets say you built a mild 540. To the tune of about 1hp per cube. Built it with low to mid range power in mind. Then, used an over drive tranny, such as a Richmond 6 speed and geared it so the engine would turn about 1500-1800 RPM at 60-70 mph. Could you get OK gas mileage with this setup? Could you get 20mpg?
