Never mind, I went back to your build thread.
I will be anxious to see what you get. My 65 has a low mileage rebuilt 283, and my 66 has a low mileage 350 Goodwrench crate. I haven't checked my 66, but my 65 got 10 the last I checked. I need to do some tuning.

Yep...new crate 350 small block with FiTech. I have heard good and bad with FiTech...I am just looking for good gas mileage and reliability.

I drive mine nearly daily, and sometimes out of town. Gets good mileage on the highway, I average 17-18 easily with a best of 20 mpg. Drivetrain is a 283, t5 with 0.63 overdrive, and 4.10 gearing.
