Project M-P-G was a real learning experience, and we found some amazing tricks and secrets that will be passed onto the readers of Four Wheeler Magazine. But in the meantime we're just going to sit back and enjoy the increased performance and fuel economy we have achieved with the additions already installed. We love doing 16,000 pound four-wheel dually "trailer-burnouts" next to the guys with the Camaros and Mustang GTs at the stop lights! The 1,000 pounds of tongue weight really dig those BFG's into the pavement for a smoky and fiery exit from stoplights where those 'pesky street racers' hang out!

As the Project M-P-G story is Published in the Magazine, full results and data will be posted at this site.
Phase-I was considered to be a "back yard" mechanic and low budget project.
It worked well… VERY well indeed!
After that, we hope to continue into "phase-II" of this project, by installing serious upgrade components such as possibly Aluminum Cylinder Heads, Upgraded fuel injectors, and maybe even a Turbo or Supercharger setup as well. Don't forget the possibility of a big bulging Stroker Motor, too! Keep tuned in for the latest in this unique project! If you'd like to see a product tested, let us know!
