RE: mpg

[Doug Jacobsma <big_jake57@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

Rich,
I had a 318 LA in a '63 Fury 2dr in the early 70's that I put many many miles on.  It was a Carter 2bbl, had dual exhaust and 3:23 gears.  I distinctly remember it being a regular 18 mpg car, 'cause in those days keeping gas in the car meant freedom, and being in that car and chasing girls was top priority.  One of those cars I wish I still had, but sold it about 10 years ago.  It was a 440 car then, and went to Wisconsin.

> hi, yesterday i took my 63 dodge for a blast out into the countryside. car ran great, but am concerned about mpg. normally just drive it around town & its been about a year since its been out on the open road. worked it out at roughly 16mpg. thought from memory[bad as it is] i'd be getting more. car is a standard 4 door sedan, 318LA engine 2brrl stromberg carg, standard exhaust manifold with twin 2'' pipes. is this mpg around the mark our should i be changing things. car dosent get driven much as its on historic reg., which also means i'm limited in what i can do so far as improvements. cheers richard [oz]
