How many miles on it? What are the gears? 3 or 4spd auto?
has a new Holly carb,
OK...Forget gas milage! Ditch the carb for a Q-jet or Edelbrock Performer carb! I wouls sugjest the Performer...Its half the price and easy to tune!
| the tailgate is removed and I am considering the following: (has automatic trans)
| --manual hubs for the front to release the full time 4WD.
Who did the full-time conversion? It should have the factory auto-hubs or lock-outs! Probably the auto-hubs with the '4x4' sticker on them! As long as they are clean and not damaged, they work fine and do fully disengage the front end!
|--a new dual exhaust system from the cat back, with no muffler.
Well aside from being annoyingly loud, it wont help much if any! Install a new monolithic converter and run a performance muffler! I went from true duals with glass packs to H-pipe duals with glass packs to H-pipe duals with custom chambered mufflers to single exhaust with one custom chambered muffler. The single exhaust has done more for my MPG and performance than any of the others! By the way, all were run with full length headers and no cat!
| Any other suggestions appreciated. I would be happy with 10 or 12 MPG. | | zul | |
