hey i bought a 87 notch minor mods no ac what do you think the gas milage would b like i had a 98 v6 ppl tell me it will come close maybe better highway milage wat do you guys this
I get like 10 miles a gallon......but im running a stroker motor, I think you might get 18 to 21 depending on the way you drive and how many miles are on your motor
i used to have an 89 gt with 5 speed and 2.73 gears. the only mods were shorty headers, mac x pipe and catback, bbk cai, and 14 degree timing. when i drove 65 to 70 mph on highway, i got around 25 miles per gallon. i noticed the exhaust mods and full synthetic oil improved the mileage maybe 1 to 2 mpg.
i used to get like 12 or so when it was bone stock and then when i did my full exhaust (headers, o/r h-pipe, and flows) along with my CAI i'm getting like 19 now
