My GT doesn't have an odometer. so Its out. but I will tell of a previous setup on my GT when it did have odometer.
'79 242 GT body.
'84 B23F 10.3:1 CR
B cam
Cone air filter with metal tubing to place the filter in the front just behind the grille.
LH 2.0. with breakerless ignition system from my original GT setup.
Exhaust was pretty much the IPD sport system. with gutted cat.
Car was lowered with skid pan in place (important for aerodynamics. )
the intake manifold I releifed the injector bosses a bit on the inside of the runners and put a swirl cut into the runners. put a knife edge on the throttle plate.
I think that does it for mods.
I always carried abunch of stuff with me. 2 x 12inch subs in big heavy box. spare parts and big tool box. spare tire and such.
even had the M46 still in it.
My rear end was also switched from the 411 ratio to the 373 I think I still have ATF as the lubricant in the rear end also.
I seemed to have pulled 35mpg hwy on this setup a couple of years before I switched to a +T and ruined my milage.
My Diesel kicks ass. I seem to get 26 city and 38 hwy I have had it upto 44mpg when I first got this swap going. oh I run b99 most the time, with better results with b99.
I know I am supposed to submit evidence of this all I was just recounting what I had done in the past with my GT which suprised me and other I have showed. I will get some proof of the Diesel's Mpg here in a while. thank you.
35 mpg U.S. is equal to 42 mpg Imperial.
35 mpg Imperial is equal to 29.15 mpg U.S.
We need to convince Mobil to bring back the
Mobil Economy Run. 1964 Buick commercial crowing about their wins in class.
