very confusing..
you havent had a z28, or have. huh? haha..
anyways, yeah. you'll get much better gas mileage, ofcourse, because a 3 speed would be pretty rough on gas, especially if you drive quick or highway driving.'83 Z28 Camaro. 350/325HP, 3:73's, comp.cam, hedman headers, 650 carter carb, 1 inch spacer, edelbrock performer, K&N, 3" flowmaster, t-tops, 18" Torq thrust-II's and a big bad 4" cowl.

With my 93 and the stock 3.23s, I've seen about 17 and 25 with some throttle pushin'. Def. much better than with a 3 spd. auto. Good luck man.Steve

An LT1 in a good state of tune with a 6 speed should pull down anywhere between 22-28 mpg on the highway and 15-20 in the city, depending on your driving style. The faster you go and the quicker your launches, of course the worse your gas mileage.Dave M

I dont know if this helps but I just took a trip this long weekend and drove about 550 miles. I went through just over a tank of gas on the whole trip. And most of this driving was being done from 70-80 mph.97 SS #C007
