Well, it would have been closer to 2011 than now when I had my 72 chevelle, lol, so it had a 6.0, ls3 heads, but Procharger, 4L80E, 3.50 9", 28" tires, it would pull down 24 running 60 mph. Prob could have leaned it out a little more.

MPG will definitely be tuned for this summer. If I can get 16-20 I’d be happy.

You should have no problem with that, as long as it's not in boost all the time.
