How to make a 61 Starliner less of a gas guzzler....

Am I the only one who noticed the one year gap in postings?

Before we debate this further, maybe we should ask what's up with the project one year later.

 

Oh man! well, ah shore hope she didn't got ruin't.

 

What Gordon said

 

Gaaaaaaah!

 

Do people like to bump year or more old threads for fun just to see who notices? Gas has been around $2 a gallon or below for a long time, in case no one's noticed.

 

dopf!!

 

Pessimists should get great mileage 'cause it's all down hill from here!

I have a 66 LTD 4 dr hdt with a 62 390 and cruso in it. Motor has been rebuilt nothin fancy at all. All stock except mallory dizzy and 600 vac sec. 300 gears. Im guessing it gets 15 on the freeway. A 390 that doesnt leak by the rings or valves with a good tune along with GOOD ignition parts (elect dizzy-coil-wires) and a 600 vac sec holley should push that car well and not be that bad on gas. Most people cant tune a car for shit!

Carefull, don't go too lean or too far advanced. That is a good way to put a hole in a piston.
