let me tell you about 454 and mileage it dose not mater if it is carbed tbi vortec or aftermarket fuel injection it gets the same mileage no matter what loaded unload just you in the truck or your whole family I no gas is not cheap I all ways say smiles per gallon are way more important then miles per gallon
on a side note my former friends 99 K-1500 classic ex-cab step side with warmed over 350 emissions delete 3:73 gears 35x12.50x15s 6'' lift gets around 15-16 in town and 18-19 on the high-way
