paul, great looking truck, drive and enjoy. btw i just got mine back and the mileage is about the same as yours and i have the same engine set up but 2.73 rearend gears. it has gotten better now that i have about 250 miles on the engine. i think with some timing reset and carb ovehaul it will get better. the rear carb is new rebuilt and front is one i ovehauled yrs. ago great job and thanks for all the work on the site, i know my truck would not be on the road but for this site. thanks again. ron
