That's cool, project cars/trucks are always a great way to blow off steam. What's the mileage like on that though? I have a '71 Buick with a 455 4 barrel and it gets like 7mpg. And that's a car lol.

I have a nice 94 3/4 ton 4x4 that has the 460 also but out of them all 78 to 79 are my favorites. I'm putting doors on soon and I have ladder bars that I sand blasted and painted to put on soon. Ill see how I like them if I keep them on
