I ran this old shitter out to Swift Current and back, a little over 400km round trip. 1992 C2500 with 230,000km on it, 454, 4.10:1 rear end, 2500rpm at 110km/hr. Everybody talks about these old big blocks getting single digit mpg. Would you believe this thing gets 16mpg on the highway? It's awful in every aspect but at least it won't break you at the gas station.

OD is key. My 3-speed 460 got 11mpg. Highway. City. Towing. Full bed. Empty bed.
Didn't matter. Always 11mpg, lol.
Fourfiftyfour is best fifty-four. Approved!
Yeah it must make a pile of difference. I should try a highway run in 3rd gear sometime to see how it compares. 3rd gear at 110-115 is 3300rpm so it should be thirstier.Quote:

If I've learned anything it's that you should always go big block. No downsides, only upsides.Quote:

What is 16mpg in a unit of measurement that would be understood by anyone who started school after 1970 in this country? :rofl:
About 16l / 100km.
Who cares about those kind of people? A better question would be why didn't their parents love them enough to raise them right.Quote:

Agreed, closed trunk is better.
Black is always better than chrome/polished, see my above post lolQuote:
