Default strokers/gas consumption

Thinking about stroking to a 5.0. simple question: will this effect my gas mileage?

of course it will. think about it. if the engine is bigger then the mixture of air/fuel needs tyo be increased. if it's increased then it'll consume more gas.

I'm stroked to 5.4L (oooooh and it feels so good) and I get 15.5 mpg combined city/hwy and get 17.5 mpg on pure highway driving twisting off 468 rwhp and 440 rwtq with 3.73's and a T-5. O/D is the niceness......

'Course it's a windsor not a modular...

Funny reply, 5.0family!!
