Well, I can help with half. I put in the engine listed below and the mpg is about 7mpg. I haven't had it to the track yet.

I ran the time in the signature below with 150hp NOS three years ago, and 13.3 at 108 on the motor. I've fiddled and tuned it (haven't run it yet), but should be good for 12.5 at 113 (or so).

I average about 12 city, 22 highway (still using factory computer and carb), so it isn't too bad at all. I'm sure if I went to injection it would add 2 or 3 mpg easy.
