Stall= MPG??
Stall= MPG?? I don't have s auto, but Im just wondering. lets say you bought air intake, headers and exhaust. You know stuff that gives you power but also gives you MPG. I know that a stall would help with shifting higher and keeping the rpms up when you are racing or just hauling. So i would think it would cut down mpgs , But when your just driving regular in the city or highway it should not take away right??

Hwy mpg is gonna be neglible either way, city mpg loss is gonna be dependent on your right foot. One time with a stall/cam/bolt ons I drove hard as **** for almost 1 tank of gas, I got 75 miles to that tank 
Don't expect any sort of MPG increase. If anything you will lose 1-3 MPG combined driving.
I went from 22-23 mpg to about 20 mpg after the converter. Then down to 17-18 mpg with H/C.

I had a 3200 with 2.73 gears and I went from getting 18ish to 12-13mpg. It was fun but I filled up every four days or so. Worth it for sure. This was with boltons and a tune.
