Lets make the best real world *MPG* THREAD EVER !!

Man I took a hammering here from several guys on how I couldn’t tune worth a shot when I said I was getting 17 mpg’s on the Hwy.

I am sure you did what you could but I never found these engines in great shape to get the almighty reported 30+!

14.2 Mpg

1968 dodge dart 2 door hardtop with :

1972 225 slant engine, very stock. Very well worn junkyard engine.

1976 cast iron 833 OD transmission.

1973 7.25 rear end with 2.94 open gears.

The car is a slug off the line and takes some revs to get moving. On the highway it sings, I don't have a tachometer but Its a comfortable rpm on the highway. I am at altitudes over 5k.

No matter how miss magoo I try to drive, the mileage doesn't really change, it's 14.2 and that's all I'm getting out of it.
