The 5.9 would certainly be more for forgiving of the 24s than a 5.2 of
comparable setup.
I'd have to agree about mileage. I think that after all the mods I've done
to my '93 5.2 I get, at least the same, if not better mileage than when it
was stock. Depending, of course, on the forces of gravity on my right foot.

Here's something for you to ponder then:
1999 Dodge Dakota R/T
Modified Throttle Body (F&B)
Dynomax Headers
Custom Cat-Back System (Flowmaster Muffler)
MSD-6 Ignition and Blaster Coil
FMS 24# Injectors
Fuel economy went UP and NO black smoke at all. (And she runs like a bat
outta
hell with the camper shell.)
