I likely still get 20 mg on the hwy but in the city you can

A camm'd car with an SS4k will make your eyes bleed if you calculate in town mileage.

Wow y'all get Awsome mileage. With my old ls6 H/C/I setup it would get 9-12 mpg city, and around 24 highway. 17-19 mixed

I get about 100-120 miles to the tank. According to google, my fuel tank is about 16.8 gal tank. So that's about 5-7 mpg in the city for me. And I'm on a stock rear and small *** cam w/ stock GM 243 heads.
