i have owned the 73 long enough to get into my 3rd tank of gas. if everything is working proper, the 351, bored .40 over, heads shaved .30, flat top pistons, mild cam, mallory ignition system, carter competition afb, headers, c5 auto trans is getting me between 9-10 miles a gallon. not really complaining because i love the drive and sound.
BUT, i am spoiled my 2000 mercedes e320 gets 32 mpg highway.
