pingpong Posted August 19, 2006 Share Posted August 19, 2006 31's and 307 equal about 8 miles off at 55mph. Ask me how I know, and I can tell you how an improper equipment ticket is more then a speeding ticket ;) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

87manche Posted August 19, 2006 Share Posted August 19, 2006 when I took my junk to attica in feb I got about that same mileage with 3.07's and 31's. Now that I'm at 3.73s it actually got better. I'm pulling down about 24 highway now. I did 700 Miles to NC on two tanks, with two ford 8.8's in the rear, a bunch of my brothers tools and all out camping gear for a week. probably about 5-600 lbs of junk in the back, doing 75 up and down the mountains in WV.

87manche Posted August 19, 2006 Share Posted August 19, 2006 long live the renix man. You can tune and tune and tune. i think I've finally reached the pinnacle of gas mileage. I keep trying to break 25, but I just don't think it's gonna happen. I should mention that I'm more than happy to "lead the parade" on the highway. 53 mph is where I get the best gas mileage, 5 miles over thatand I lose 2 MPG, so ya'll can kiss my bumper, I do 53 :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cabz Posted August 19, 2006 Share Posted August 19, 2006 As far as mileage goes , I have 31's 3.55 gears and a dead accurate speedo and I get 23.5 Hwy and not near that in the city ( maybe betwee 16 and 18 depending on A/C and skinny pedal :D ) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

4play Posted August 20, 2006 Share Posted August 20, 2006 Oizarod, in Atlanta traffic, wouldn't it be more practical to figure how many hours you can sit in a traffic jam on a tank of gas? ;) :teehee: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
