    well , visited a buddy of mine today in the centurion, a 169 mile round trip. Filled up with premium, and fingers crossed for the maiden voyage! anyway temp kept right at 180 all the way and the car ran like a champ cruising at 75 - 80 mph. tore up the road outside my buddies house doing grin inducing burnouts drags etc :Brow:

    Anyway, when it was time to come home i decided to fill her up again for the journey home as my gas guage isnt working at the moment . according to the trip i have completed 97 miles so far so i was expecting to put around 9 gallons in. well, i could only fit 5.75 gallons in :eek2: that works out at just over 17 mpg :bglasses: :beer :beer . loads more power and better gas mileage :TU: :TU: :TU: :TU: you gotta love a big block!
