Default Re: Hey Yinz Pittsburgh guys....

Ended up going Friday. Made it there and back in one day. 350-400 mile roundtrip in a '65 Nova - manual steering, no A/C, and no OD. Car still averaged between 18-19 mpg (two fill-ups) running 3100-3500 rpm on the PA turnpike.

Decent MPG for a good running 355 with a 217/225 @ 0.050 108 LSA cam. My hours and hours of Q-jet tweaking seem to have paid off, as it cruises at 15.0-15.5 a/f ratio on the wideband meter.

I shoulda won some kinda long distance award or something! LOL [img]<<GRAEMLIN_URL>>/smile.gif[/img]
