gas

just curious what kind of gas mileage are you guys getting. If I remove the air pump and all the emissions and put a 5-600 cfm carb on my truck what kind of gas mileage do you think I will get. Thanks

if you'd tell us exactly what you're running (150,250,350, 4.9l, 302, 351, 460, long bed, short bed, 2wd, 4wd, etc, etc, etc...) we'd be able to give you more help and you'd get some more relevant responses

Taking all that stuff off will probably not gain any mileage, unless it's not working properly.
