Wanna know how my mileage improved? (serious no joke) I was surprised by this as I was fearing the opposite. I have a 94 reg cab 3.9 A/T truck. gets 17 on a good day.
I recently bought a 93 clubcab with a 318. bigger engine. same 3.55 gearing. bigger truck (club cab vs reg cab) the club had a supposed bad tranny. (auto)
I swapped in a 5 speed behind the V8. Now I get 17 on a bad day and 20 on a good day.

yes I did put an NV 3500 in behind my 318. as well as the computer from the donor truck; but though I hear all the horror stories I wouldnt have been afraid to pop an ax15 in if that was what I could have found;
and I wish I could FIND ethanol free gas there is no such animal here in Illinois

it aint worth driving 40 miles (80 round trip) to fill up thats the closest 2 stations to me.
to the OP what kind of MPG are you gettin? What are you calling a "gas hog"?
Make sure the tuneup parts are in great shape or replace them, and dont use Bosch platinum, oe any multi electrode plugs they are a waste of money.
Converter could be clogged
trans could be slipping
driver could be driving it crazily
