My brothers hotrod-6 69 Valiant was always 'on'... he needed to flog it to go fast... and that thing had utterly atrocious gas-mileage. It even had 3.21's and an OD 833...
that's the driveline my duster has, with the stock slant 6...even foot to floor for a whole tank, I've never gotten worse than 19mpg with it in the 21 years I've had the car, and typically get 24-26mpg a tank in mixed driving...but passing on a 2 lane road does take a little planning, especially compared to my '11 charger....
I really would love to try a stock 5.7L in my duster behind that driveline....bet mileage would be about the same, but it would probably be a high 12 second car...
