460 Fuel Economy
I recently found a 1978 Ford F250 4x4 CrewCab. It has apoximately a 4 in. lift and 35 in. tires; and sports a 460 engine mated with an automatic tranny. My question to you guys with similar specs or close to... is what kind of MPG you are getting; under all conditions. Unfortunately I do not currently know what gears are in the axle and what kind of CAM it has (towing, etc). Truck also has a matching topper, that may or may not affect fuel economy. Thanks

I started doing these tricks on two of my vehicles so far... Data is very promising at this point, on second tank of fuel.
I am running 3 oz of acetone per 10 gallons of fuel, home-built ozone generator (cost $0), and other mods to come.

The spark plug mod is next... Looks awesome!
