is there any way to have decent mileage, while running higher amounts of horsepower, i would like to stay away from fuel injection if possible. i wouldnt worry about mileagee but im 16, and i driver 40 miles to school

 

Have you thought about an AOD swap to replace your FMX?

 

im sticking with the fmx because i just put a shift kit in it

 

the setup im building right now is possibly stroking the motor out to a 331 or 347, fmx trans with full shift kit

 

More power usually means pushing more fuel and more air. Losing weight is one way to help with fuel economy. Look what Ford just did with the F150.

Of course, completely rebuilding your body out of aluminum might be a tad expensive. . .

 

haha yeah I think that would be expensive. will changing cylinder heads add anything?
