I'd venture to guess that the LS1 FD will get similar, if not better mileage than most of the boosted cars here.
It should pull 26-28MPG on the freeway with NO problem in 6th

Did someone say nitrous?!?!:nxsmile:

working on the cam now. Having a hell of a time keeping the engine from jumping around while I jump on the breaker bar attached to the crank bolt.

I stuck a metal punch through a hole in the flywheel with the starter removed.

I'm standing on the end of an 18" breaker and jumping up and down, the bolt hasn't budged.
