That's a nice goal, but reality will probably hit you in the face.
I have to drive really gently to get 24 mpg out of my 300M with the 3.5 v6 and 4 speed auto trans driving mostly rural with a little city traffic mixed in. Not to mention the 300M has way better aero than any of our old cars.
The smaller/lighter '08 Avenger R/T with 3.5 v6 and 6 speed auto tranny is only EPA rated at 24 mpg highway.
So with 408 cubes and a 4 barrel in a brick, you'll be doing real well to crack 20 mpg at 60 mph.
