Re: Better gas mileage

I have a 67 lwb c-10, 250 straight six with a 5 speed tranny. I just rebuilt the monojet single carb, put in new plugs, wires and distributor. It runs great but my fuel consumption is worse than I thought it would be. My speedo is not working so I can't count off the miles. How can I tell what gear ratio the rear end is? I was thinking it would get great gas mileage given the carb, motor size and 5 speed and headers with dual exhaust. Any ideas?
