RE: Miles per gallon- What are you getting?
With my stock 85 D150 Ram(318, 3 speed a904) I get 10mpg city(driving hard) and 14mpg hwy. I do have a rebuilt longblock 318, but its all stock with exception of the k&n filter and ignition(wires, plugs, mopar performance cap and dist).
Note: I am probably the only one running stock hubcaps and tires. http://www.cardomain.com/ride/570246/2

With the new TCI transmission and non-lockup torque converter, the mileage has actually dropped. In my GVX, my Mom drove it one day and I got in it on the next day. When I left home, the computer said the avg. was 25 mpg. I drove 10 miles, and it dropped to 16.7 mpg. It made me wonder how I still have a clean driving record.

Hi All
Just bought my 84 Ram 100. a 318 rebuilt motor with racing cams (2BBL Carb) and a little over 1000 miles. 4 speed manual trans , dual 3" pipe with glass packs and Hoosier tires. No polution equiptment nor cat what so ever. Red with bench, radio, crank window and that is about it.
I got an average of 9.8 which included town and highway.

Had wiring issues and she is back up!!!
During the fix put on new distributer, wires and Hi pro coil.
Very sweet truck for what i paid for it. Needs rear brakes redone and parking brakes. Only cost me 1500. I will have put in 300. more and it whould be perfect.
very satisfied. Same carb as my 83 AMC Eagle.
Did I say body was re-done and painted a year ago...no holes nor rust. New exhaust, new clutch on the manual OD transmission, I guess I said that already.
My gas milage figgures may not be that accurate as they are not stock sizes and my odometer may be off..
