about 12-13 Highway with 33in m/ts and 4.10s

too scared to calculate city

Hahahaha, heck, I get 14mpg with the CJ with a 304! That's doing 70 mph, 35's and 4.10's and T18, I think I'll stick to my V8.

i think i want to do a 350 swap, the gas wont be that much different.

33s, 4.10s, 2.5
i get like 14 combined city/hwy

[muddslinger]

i guess im not getting that bad of mileage, i just thought that being a 2.5 that it would be atleast 20 highway

If you look at the factory stickers at the time they were new, they only got about 1mpg better iirc.

you have to remember that is is matted to a brick on wheels
