My 70 SS396 with 3.55 gears just got 15 mpg going out to Carlisle and back. If you drive like a normal person you can get in the teens. If you stomp on it all the time then you will be lucky to get 10 mpg.

I think the motor is a 462 500hp poncho with a demon in bandit 1.The trans is a tremec 5spd and what I heard it got like 20mpg on the highway on the power tour.The other powerplants later will be ls2 600hp bandit 2 , bigger CI pontiac based by butler, pushing 700hp bandit 3.

Then 10-15mpg, depending on a number of variables, is probably in line.
