There are far too many variables left open to even try to answer this.
If you keep the build conservative, you should be pretty close to 20mpg on the hwy.
My 408w was doing about 17mpg on average, and crested the 20's on the hwy.
Primary factors would probably be the cam and Injector/MAF setup.
If you get those right (for YOUR application), then you should still be able to hit close to 20 on the hwy.
