I've got a buddy with a newer Power Wagon. Bad *** truck, but he says he averages about 11 mpg, around town its closer to 8.

I'll stick with my 5.7 for now, although it needs more power in the 3500rpm range. I tow my camper a TON with mine, and it really struggles getting up to highway speeds.

That makes me feel better...I've been averaging 11.4 around town

A few weeks ago I bought a second PCM, and had it reprogrammed by American Muscle Performance out in Florida

Been less then a week and I'm up to 12.0 allready, with a little bit of extra oomph too

Might be an option for your 5.7?

I made a suggestion a long time ago, to install a flex joint in the Y pipe. This would help tremendously with the expansion / contraction issue. The Y pipe also expands away from each end and compounds the tension put on the rear bolts.

The headers I'm looking at come with a new Y pipe, but I don't believe there is any flex in it
