With Christine in previous stock premag form, I was pushing low 20s on
the highway for fuel economy.

Being that I have not finished her V8 conversion - I have not had a
chance to see how the 318 performs for fuel economy.

I know what kind of milage my pig Ram gets with its 360 V8 - 11-12 ish...

So I'm wondering what you folks with 318's have seen for fuel economy.
Is it unrealistic to hope for 19-20 on the highway if I drive granny-style?

If I can hope to get 20-ish fuel economy... I'll attempt to finish her
up and get her out east this summer... if not... its Neon time.
