How bout out-dated technology?
My bro has a 99 T/A and gets almost 20 MPG
runs the 1/4 in 13.1@105
He even has the 160* T-stat.. and other mods which would cause worse gas
milage...
I think mopar can come up with some spify motors.. but is scared.... Who
knows...

That LS1 is a bad ass'd motor... The 4.7 is almost there.. I guess mopar
needs some more research... (just a thought)
