That's the way to go... I had to get it into my head, ci vs. litres. Hell, my old Dodge Darts had the 225 Slant Six, and that is 3.7L. My 91 New Yorker with a 230ci/3.8 gets 21-23mpg around town, and has gotten 30 on the highway with full-sized comfort. I have owned MGs, a 77 for 14 years and 78 for two years. Their 110ci/1.8L engine with dual carbs got in the high twenties with spirited driving. The Dodge Charger is getting great mileage around town, 27, and we haven't got it out on the highway yet. |
