Best mileage 8.1
Alright I have read and read. And some of you boys.... Lol are crazy. I was very worried when I bought my truck and found no aftermarket. So glad I found y'all!! But any way the problem at hand, I have an 01 4x4 burb with an 8.1 and get about 10 mpg. Where should I start, what helps the most for the least money. Sorry if this is a re post but some of what I've read was old just trying to get best bang for my buck!! And maybe some "best" product opinions. Also I've never done a custom tune just don't wanna get screwed or f up my truck

if you want it get it but i dont remember the results other guys have gotten with them. custom tune is the best bang for the buck on the 8.1l's.. alot of the guys like the black bear and nelson tunes. i like my wester's but i also run forched induction. to tell ya the honest truth there isnt much you can do to get millage outta the motor though they love to drink.
dont know your budget but if you have the money go cam, port/polish both intake and heads, roller rockers from Raylar, long tube headers, and a tune

Wheatley is here locally so probably gonna go with him, seen lots of good things. And I know I'm not gonna get good fuel mileage just lookin for better. My budget is limited right now, it's my next project. But I'd still like to use it
