just a couple of questions i need answering and you guys probably know so here goes.... does anyone know "about" what my gas mileage should be for a 1971 maverick grabber w/ 302. it has edelbrock 600cfm 4 bbl carb and edelbrock performer series intake...i figured theres got to be somebody else with the same setup..it has original gears and about the same size tires and rims. w/ newly rebuilt c-4. the reason is because my fuel guage broke on it and hs been stuck for a few weeks now in same position..it's not the sending unit(just bought one and put it in and worked fine) but i wanted to know what the mpg was i was thinking around 12 to 14. also who carrys the guages that i have seen in a few pictures i believe the autometer or autoguage? the reason is because if i have toget a new guage i will go ahead and get those. if anyone could post the pictures of them and info it would be much appreciated. thanks alot!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!1
it depends greatly on how you drive. I think 17 was the high average. I got 12 in city, 16 on highway after a few changes to the gas around here, Holley 600 w/Edel Performer. something was added or something about 2 years ago, milage went to hell quick, power dropped as well.
