6-8 mpg is worth smiling about. Just hope the 300 doesn't let you down.

I have expierence with crappy milleage doubt my 93 gets 10.
I think we're in the same costly boat
Well, we'll settle this like men, you put your 302 SUV mustang roller injected mystiefied truck
and I'll line up my stroked 352 500 cfm towing cam.

Well start at Sakatoon and cruise down highway 16 towards yorkton at 65mph, the first one to use 10 gallons of fuel pays for the other guys gas.

Well I meant the 6-8 mpg for the 352. The 300 should at least get 18-20 mpg.

I'm afraid you will lose that bet for many reasons:

Fuel Injection - When Ford first fuel injected the 302 it gained 2 mpg.
Overdrive - An AOD equipped 302 got 3 mpg more vs a C-4 equipped one
Engine efficiency - I have upped the volumetric to 91% from a measly 83%. You FE engine would be lucky to hit 80% due to it's compression ratio, big heads and stock intake.

Your main advantage is that your truck is 400 lbs lighter than mine. 3816 lbs vs 4200 lbs.

I'll get at least 15 mpg. Hell a 3850 lb crown vic can get 22 mpg and those had the least efficient 5.0L engines.

You can make fun of my truck all you want but I've researched my engine build. Your "towing cam" is only slightly bigger than the factory Mustang 5.0 cam. 206/206 vs 204/214 and my cam is 215/224.

I have built your 352 in desktop dyno if you want to see it.
