F100kls

hey guys, jus like to know what you think about the amount of gas my truck is using, has a steel tray back with maybe 200-300kg of work gear on it.
using pulp gas im getting approx 300km with 60L and being very cautious with the right foot thats 20L/100km do think this is good economy?
its a new 351 with a small cam, 600 vac sec, tri y extractors 2.5 single system and 3.5 rear gears

i know its a big amount of weight to move around but i was hoping to get a little bit further with 60L

how far can you guys get after a fill up

any opinions or tips for me

brenx

it sounds about right for an effie. Have you had it dyno tuned?

Is that around town or highway? If around town I think that's very good economy for an F100.

I've got an 86 Effie with a 302w and get about 150km on 20 litres.Clevos I've had do drink more than there cousins cube 4 cube.So it does'nt seem that bad

brenx- no dyno work done, is it a good idea to do?

northey- it's mainly highway driving at 90kmh

brenx

Yes. It'll find any issues you have. You'll most likely end up with more power and better fuel econ.

I'm running a tunnel rammed 351, twin 660 centre sqirt carbies, 650 hp, 3.9 diff. It uses about 20l/100km. My stock P6 LTD 351 was getting about 500 km's per tank which is about 12l/100km

Depends how you drive it, they are a very tempremental car. If you drove it easy, it was quite economical, but if you booted it everywhere, you could easiloy halve the economy.
