Re: 6.8 MPG ok?

A Black Brick moving over 100 is kinda fun eh? That mileage is normal for the rate of speed and your gearing.

After I rebuilt the top end on a stock 350 in a 1970 rig I got it moving over 110. This was at 3/4 to 7/8 throttle with the speedo buried.

Keep a hold of that wheel my good man!
