    Thanks Dave. Like I said, even Dan didn't believe me when we were refueling until he saw it for himself. And we know it was 120 miles because we started at mile marker 243 and refueled at 122. I'm liking these small block Chevies more and more all the time. I'm serious about that statement, I still like Ford small and big blocks, but this 350 just goes on down the road and never misses a beat. Obviously they wouldn't be the most swapped in engine if they weren't that way.

    Just how light is that little gas milage wonder. I think we've found the hot rodders version of a prius!

    I think Pops gets a couple extra mpg just by the aerodynamics of his "forehead"!

    It's much easier to promise someone a "free" ride on the wagon than to urge them to pull it.

    Luck occurs when preparation and opportunity converge.
