Gas mileage aint that bad if you keep it below 3,000 rpms. Seems to be about the same if not a little bit better than the sixer.

that ls1 will make your mustang look like a 1 ton chevy truck with a 502 in it comparing gas ileage. its not unusual to see ls1 cars getting close to 30 mpg. also i think your better off sticking with the stang and going through with your plans on it

i dont like mr2's much. get an s2000 and turbo that only honda i would ever think about owning. the car im driving right now, for fusion(rental car), is supposed to be getting 26mpg but right now only 17. i guess going to 6.5k rpms can kill gas mileage
lol that thing is sooooo slow! it literally took a minute to get to 100.

Well I already sold the S/C for the stang. I had a 5.0 93 5spd a Ford Lightning 93 and now this 99GT, and I wanna try to see what all this fuss is about on the LS1 I can't meet the price for a terminator so I'll go a step lower to an LS1 I driven Fords all my life and love every second of it but time to see what a Chevy can do ( but don't worry) in a year or two I'll hopefully find a good terminator!!
