Cuda gets 30+mpg cause he's a jerk. (jk)

He's done almost every 'breathing' mod you can do so his car has great air/fuel and more efficient. You couldn't do what he did in CA and stay smog legal

Re: Damn Good Gas Mileage

Id love to. But doing up the exhaust is something I have yet to figure out. Hawks wants over a thousand dollars for their exhaust system. Maybe its just me but thats a big number. And it was close to 800 for the long tube headers. Everything for the ls1 is more expensive. So im saving up, but its gonna take a while. Either that or i can just do an lt1 swap. The headers i have now should bolt up if im not mistaken. But it still takes money. Im still looking at this small block that i found and i may just build that up cuz its cheap power.

Re: Damn Good Gas Mileage

My Trans Am got 22.5 MPG around town right before I tore it apart.
Those were the days.....
