To make a real accurate educated guestamation I would really need a few variables.    Was there any school zones enforced, what's your average 0-35 mph times  (assuming all city driving) and roughly how many stop signs and lights did you hold...a total sitting/idle time?  :o Without any of those it's a total blind guess...  ;D    of 13.7

" Dead Man's Curve"  playing always some how dropped my MPG ! I see your 15.2 and raise to 15.3.

Dart sportsman's block (oops, wrong site) would be a great prize to display in the shop!

302 with the 4:88's gave me around 10 mpg if I remember. The 400, a good solid 8 mpg. Mind you I never let the carbon build up.

Keep the guesses coming, this is great. All I will say at this point is.. ONE of you is SUPER close!!
 Prize will be 1 item of your choice of many items. See pictures for SOME choices. Starter bracket has the rod, with nut, no wire loop holder. That went on my car  ;D . D

Yes this is getting fun  ;D
 That adapter is a conversion for the speedo. I can't remember how it works. I think it goes by the color dab on the unit. This one doesn't have it. I think I have seen red and purple?? Maybe someone can chime in and tell by the part number which one this is... D
