Yeah, but the horsepower gains far outweigh the pain of the cost of fuel

I dont plan on getting good gas mileage when I do my swap this winter, If I still do I will be happy with that though no doubt.

If tuned well the mileage concerns are minimal.
My 3.73'd 3400 stalled sedan packing over 200hp mor than my bone stock wagon gets 19mph or so, wagon gets 22 on the same driving. Wagon picks up to near 24mpg on the highway the sedan does not pickup much due to the gears. My tune is just mailorder from a good tuner, not tweaked beyond that.
