Does anybody know what kind of gas mileage i would see with a t56/4.56 rear gear combo???

Cars mods:
Hooker full-length headers 1 3/4"
2 1/2" exhaust through flowmaster 40series
K&N FIPK
and no emission crap

Oh yeah its in a 71 camaro....

I need to know so if the gas mileage is good I can pick up a rear-end today.

please tell me around 15mpg around town??!!

Thanks

HAHA Sorry... more realistically like 10-13 around town. On the highway is a different story... why would you choose that high of a gear anyways... 1-2 is practically useless.

 

I've got 4.10's with a 26.5" tire and sometimes I wish I had 3.73's because the gears go by so quick. If you drive this vehicle everyday, it is my opinion that you will get tired of that low of a gear real quick. As far as mileage is concerned, the last time I checked mine, I managed 15.7 mpg with average driving. And thats with a cam. I do live about ten minutes out of town so I have a little highway driving, which might account for the relatively good number.

 

Your truck is faster than my car.

 

Its a lot of fun. Of course the time in my sig is with slicks. But, I must say, I can't make turns for crap
