Thanks a ton for posting this thread. I wanted to see a similar thread, just didn't want to be the guy who started it
I've got a 68 step SWB w/L6 250 with a 1bbl carb and 3 on the tree. I get ~15-16MPG on the highway from what I can tell (65-70MPH). Not sure about city miles. The truck has plenty of 'pep', but I want to put something bigger in it. Not thinking as big as an LS1 or LT1 - more like the 4.8L V8 vortec engine that was in my '03 Sierra. I got 19-21 MPG highway with aftermarket intake and one of those hypertech programmer things.
