With the gears changed and a good cam and straight up timing it should rip around the corner pretty good lol. What are you getting for MPG? my truck has used almost half a tank of gas in like 20 miles. Something ain't right there, it disgusted me when I saw how much it's used in 20 miles.

Well it really depends on where i am going. I drove out to everett to a place that was 52.2 miles one way. All freeway driving and the whole trip back and only used half a tank of gas. I'm not sure what my mpg is right now since i can't fill my tank to calculate it. I have tried doing it at half a tank but it didn't really give an accurate reading. The difference is so much from freeway to city that it would be hard to tell.

I'm sure you could. If i could i would do it every time i needed to park, but i bet if you did that on a driving test you would fail 
I never completed my parallel parking when i took my test. I was still sticking out in the road and the lady said "Ok go ahead and pull back into traffic". Apparently i passed it.

I didn't understand a word that new poster just said, made no sense to me. I'm gonna try the blue 4" carb jet springs (lightest ones) for the heck of it to see what it does, some people say it's fixed their stumble at cruise. All I know is this crappy MPG has to stop! haha
