Hmm Chevys website sayss 16/26 not even close to 30.. Not that those are even acurate anyways, plus if you drive it like that video shown, that 7.0 liter will have no problem eating that gas faster than you can fill the tank.

the most gas i have ever got in my tank was 13.4 gallons, the tank is supposed to be 15.4

330 / 13.4 = 24.6mpg

thats with doin about 10 1st to 3rd pulls

half city half highway drivin

of course this isnt exact, i might have been able to go farther, but risk running out LOLl, but not too shabby if i do say so myself

that's not too shabby at all. You get like double what I get. Funny thing with my car is, whether I drive easy and conservative or fast and reckless, I pretty much get the same miles per tank. I experimented a few times, and in the end I was getting about the same mileage. Really sucks man, I was tryin to save some loot and the mugger said ---- no. Oh well.

i did a little homework for ya guys. heres a link to the specs right from chevrolet. http://www.chevrolet.com/corvette/specifications/ epa rates it at 26 mpg on highway and 16 on the city. not too shabby for a 427 smallblock. lingenfelter already has a tt setup and it pumps out 1,000 hp heres the links to the dyno http://www.lingenfelter.com/C620054271038hp320.mpg
