283 fuel milage
I have a recently completed 1950 GMC on an S-10 chassis. 283,fresh rebuild,flat top piston's , power pack head's ,600 cfm edelbrock carb . The truck has 3.73 gear's and a 350 tran's. Fuel milage is terrible 10 mpg avg. The engine is turning almost 3000 rpm at 60 mph. First I know I need to change gear ratio. My question is what kind of milage can I expect and what RPM should I be turning at cruising speed with this 283.
