I'll get back to you at the end of the week. I'll have to fill up then and
see what I get just around town. Right now I get around 14, I'll see what
happens.
Update to the 97's. The guy at RC said my dad needed the K&N FIPK, so he
bought it from him. I called K&N today and they said it still wasn't
available for the 97's??? He should have it this week. Can't wait to see
what the pecker-head ships him. All I know is if this doesn't work, the old
man will be pissed! I think Mopar Muscle needs to research its companies
before they print an issue!
Your right at .5 mpg should pay for it's self in under 20,000 miles. A little
performance gain never hurts either. Can't make up my mind if I gained
anything on the performance end or not? I don't have a butt calibrated dyno!
Top end speed.... I raced pops in his 66 Coronet one day, stayed ahead of
him, my speedo goes to 110, (MP SBEC 95 5.2), his 120, he said he pegged 120
(this was before he went with the 4bbl, cam, some head work & aluminum intake
on his little 361 Big block). I think I'll stay away from him now!
There were threads about this some months ago. The 5.2 with the MP SBEC
should be able to reach 130. My 93 3.9 5spd MP SBEC hit 125 once (speedo went
to 125, my 95 5.2 only goes to 110, go figure?).
