Lil slow on the update...

Its very possible, just takes too much time, but doin 55mph with no AC and smooth on the throttle, the motor is barely even working at ~1450rpms.

Have you ever tried driving 200 miles at 55mph?

im running high 15s AFR, and about 42-44* timing in my cruise cells on 93oct, and 38-40* on 87oct.

Last month i made a trip to Dallas, TX for work, averaged 24mpg round trip 1100 miles.
Then went to my buddys house north of here for a cook out and got 24.1 round trip. With the cammed 6.0/80E, 3.42s, 30.5" tires. another 4mpg is very possible if you slow down and not strain the engine. ill look at my logs, they difference in vacuum between 55 and 70mph is quite big.
