yeah I wish I had gone with a smaller cam on my 327, They tend to like smaller cam. As for gas mileage I am using the built 327 (331 .030 over) with a TH350 and 4:10 gears I get 10 MPG. I think with a more streetable gear, a trans thats not about to blow up and some small changes with the motor I could keep the power and raise the mileage to 15. I will let you know how my mileage changes when I swap out to the 4speed this fall. If you have any questions, or want to check out my setup let me know. The engine is very strong but the trans is holding it back. The way it sits with the bad trans its quicker than my Z28 is, and my guess is the camaro would run 13.4ish area. Depending on what youre puting the motor into I dont see why you couldnt have a similar setup go a bit faster than your goal.
