8 mpg with 1977 Chevy 350 with 4 barrel Holley. I can pull tree stumps
with it though and do, if I cut enough side roots. It'll pull darn near
anything, and never overheats. Oh yeah sidepipes, too. Just starting it
wakes up everyone in the vicinity. I just have to get that tranny out to
fix a leaking seal. Be damned if I work under it with jacks though. :)

p/s California would shoot me for crossing their borders with this

other way. Zoom! Zoom!
