But I just got back from a 60 car rallye in the mountains of WV and I can assure you all of the ITB/EFI guys got markedly better fuel economy than the CIS guys. Doesn't sound that important until you get to the bottom of the mountain on Monday morning to tank up and head home and find there is no gas at the station. I wasn't worried as I knew my 1/2 tank would easily get me to the next station. My friend next to me in a CIS car was worried. (we did both make it to the next fuel station)
The main reason I’m interested in ITBs is fuel economy. My 1966 2.7l weber 40 gets 16 mpg. Any idea how much an improvement ITBs will offer?
