If the bville has an 18 gall tank like I think it does, thats like 13 mpg...but I'm probably wrong...

I get ~20, but I drive like a bat outta heck, plus a lot of city driving, the exhaust is shot and the TCC is disconnected.

Edited: swearing woops...

Anyone happen to know how big the tank is on a '91 SSE? I do know that on a totally full tank, I can get about 230 miles to it.

I get about 17-21 mpg city driving and about 26 hwy. That ain't too bad. I have the 18 gallon tank. My odometer isn't working so I don't know how many miles I drive in a week. I was just guesstimating.

I just started a Spreadsheet to track this on the new engine. Right now, I'm at 27 MPG, but I think it may have been a fluke. And it'* only 2 tanks of gas so far....
