1.5 rockers and MPG

I am still on a quest for better mileage for my 92 Dak V6 CC. The underdrive
pulley and flexi fan improved MPG about 2 points. After reading the article
here: http://www.vetteweb.com/tech/0204vet_rockers/ I am wondering if I
should swap the stock 1.6's out for 1.5's. The article implies that I could
actually gain torque, with a sacrifice to upper rpm power. I can live with
that, I don't race the thing, I just drive it. And before someone suggests
that I buy a Neon, I am looking to modify my 'paid for' truck, not pay for
something else. Any thoughts?
