That's not true...its all in the tune. I saw over 30 HWY with my XP/headers/LS1TB/3.2" or whatever pulley I was running.

so then would a rockers/ intercooler/ 3.0 pulley be a bad combo or should i cam it with that setup... sorry for thread jacking but this is my goal for my gtp...

im sorta leaning towars 1.95s eventhough id really like the cam its jus easyier to install

the point is that hes not going to lose gas mileage with a top swap, at least not very much. hell you got better mileage than my gt.

I never said he was going to lose MPG's with a TS...you said the cam was going to net him worse MPG's and that isn't true. If the tune is bad, or richened up, then yes. If not...then it'll get just as good MPG's as a stock cam, if not better.
