Re: Carburetor
I hate Q-jets, but if I was building a stockish engine for MPG's only, I'd probably run one and tune it accordingly.
You don't have to have an LS and a fancy FI system to get decent mileage. A 350 and a properly tuned engine and ignition system, with an OD transmission, and butt gears to match your combo should be easy to do.
