Gas Mileage After Crawford V5

Just returned from a 1400 mile trip from Charlotte to Memphis and back. This is the first trip since installing the Crawford V5 plenum. I drove between 70 and 80 all the way and got 25 mpg. This seems to be a little better than my last trip when I got about 23 mpg. G is about to turn 22000 miles, so the break-in factor may play a part as well, but I am still impressed.

Re: Gas Mileage After Crawford V5

Such a long trip is a good indication of mileage. 8-9% is a significant increase. [img]/w3timages/icons/smile.gif[/img]

Without knowing the winds and the temperature/humidity, as well as your average speed you really can't tell if the plenum had anything to do with it. Wind and temp make a big diff.
