[QUOTE="BillyGman, post: 2470936, member: 19962"] More for less? I dunno about that, but even if that's true, there again, just like my previous point about the nitrous oxide argument.....even if the initial investiment is less, the added expense will kill you if it's a dialy driver. And that applies with a 460 engine (or any big block, especially if it's carbureted). The bigger engine will kill you on gasoline, but the small block V8 engine that's supercharged can still get you around town every day at 15 MPG. I've been getting 14 MPG around town even with my lead foot, occassional burnouts, and ocassional street races, and my 4.56 gears. Put 4.56 gears in car with an N/A 460 engine, and see what kind of gas mileage you would get. You'll be lucky if you got 9 MPG, and it would likely be 7 or 8 MPG, especially with a heavy car like the Marauder. [/QUOTE]
