Thanks... it is still under restoration. Well as far as MPG, I am not sure. I have never checked it. I have owned this car since 2007, but never drove it much due to engine problems. I think we have it figured out though. As soon as back on the road, which should be soon, I am going to check that out... we shall see. lol.
This car actually has the optional 402 big block engine, but should be about the same as the small block 400. The front fender emblems actually say 400 (for models with the 402) and the ones with the 400 engines didn't even have the emblems, but that is how Chevy did it back then - why, I don't know. lol.
