I'm Awesome
i currently have a, what i was told, 355 sbc, with double hump heads. it does have weiand team g intake and 1406 edelbrock carb. cam specs unknown, i think it has a aftermarket cam but noting extravagant.
i know i am not going to get great mpg but i need to get better than what i get. im not exactly sure what i am getting but based off what a previous vehicle was getting i am getting well under 10 mpg.
so this is my question would replacing the weiand team g intake,2800-7800 rpm, with a more factory style intake such as weiand street warrior, idle-5500 rpm, help me get a little better fuel economy. 10 mpg would be great to me. im not looking to really spend a whole lot of money as i plan to build a motor once i have steady money flow, already have intake for that, but just need some advice on some things that i could do to possibly help my fuel economy.
kinda off the topic of this post but another question is would a factory 92 distributor, cap, and rotor work on my motor. i picked up basically a full tune up out the junk yard, all bought in February found the receipts in the glove box of said truck, and was wondering what all i could use from that tune up, i.e: cap, rotor, plugs, and wires, on my current engine to eliminate any sort of issue that i could have, cause i do not know how old any of the stuff on my truck is. if not what distributor would i need to do the proper tune up.
thanks guys any help would be much appreciated.
