I got better than 20 crusing from OC to SD, not so bad for a monster. The cruise ranged from about 14.5-15.5 AFR all the way down. If I went up a hill in 6th, or dropped into 5th gear, it went down to 11.5-13.5, which is what it should be doing.

The carb idles right about 14.5-15 in cold weather, but its a little richer when it warms up. I guess thats the nature of the beast when you run a carb though.
Better than 20 mpg in a carbbed, supercharged 383 . . that's impressive.
