Fill up the tank write down the millage, and then drive around and fill it up again and bust out the math...

But for reference.... In my 74 Ghia with a 1600 DP with a 009 and a

34Pict3 Carb with headers I got about 28 MPG... even when going like 80 or 85..... top speed was 87, but it would hold it at least...

I wish I had just kept that engine.... my 1776cc lasted me 2500 miles, and my 2110cc sucks because I don't have the intake and exhaust and ignition to make it run like it should.

I had a single port 1600 maybe 70 or so and got about 30 if I remember right.
