Re: Gas Mileage is poor

Before you start thinking about engine swap options, you have to weigh the cost of the swap installed ready to go, let me just ballpark a figure of 2k, just for the sake of having a number. Now that 2k motor nets you 18-20, and you're getting 10-11 now. Both engines STILL burn fuel, and your gas tank still holds the same amount, so in theory depending on driving time, it could take you a long time to justify the cost of a swap, just to save a couple bucks on gas. That being said, if your engine is tired and you're ready for a swap and prepared to put down money anyways....... LS that bad boy and be done with it!!!!!!
