"You can pick up a good Buick Roadmaster with a 350 Engine that gets 25 MPG "

I have had 350s. You CAN NOT get 25 MPG with one even if you had a tailwind downhill. Not gonna happen. The 350 was one of the biggest gas hogs out there. Crap performance too, unless you did some mods, which made it eat more gas, and then made it round of the soft cams they put in the piles of crap.

Give me an old 327 any day.

Anyone who honestly thinks they are getting 25 MPG with a 350 in a Roadmaster is either poor at math or smoking something.
