Had to fill the tank on the way home. Looks like about 11.5 mpg
When the needle hits E, you best pull over and fill it up.
No rain. Sunny and high 60's. Suppose to be in the 80's Friday and Sat

Im having problems with the aftermarket shift rod I used when converting to th350 from powerglide. From column to the trans.
Its flexing and not getting it done. I would love to find a stock rod assembly for a column shift TH350
Anybody have anything?

11.5 MPG? I was getting 14.5-15 city, and 17-18 highway with my Monte Carlo. Me thinks it needs some more fine tuning.

It was a stock rebuilt 350, small cam, rebuilt 4bbl QJet, stock intake manifold, mid length headers, 2.5 mandrel bent duals. TH350, 2000 RPM converter, factory 12 bolt rear with 2.73 gears. Not to mention it was over 4000lbs.
