> 20 isn’t to bad i guess, definatlly being lighter would help not burn as much gas! i had a 79 z28 with a 350 4bbl. i could almost watch my gas gauge go down when u punched it!! i sold that for my 240!! 40$ z28 - 200km, 40$ 240 450km, ALOT less power, but atleast my wallet wouldn’t suffer so much!!

Yeah, for sure the older V8s were a wee bit thirsty, but the new ones seem to be pretty good. They’re not a Prius, but they don’t eat the gas like they used to. The cost increase sometimes is because you have to put premium in for some of the V8s, like my LT1. I don’t know about the 5.3s, I imagine the LS1 wants premium.

lol, I believe the headlight wasn’t added to show some more of the construction, and I don’t think it was finished in that picture. I don’t see any bolts between the turbo and the manifolds. Other pictures show both lights in =p. I can post the link to other pics if people want them, I just need to dig it up again.
