Simple fuel effeciency. 120-130

posted by  someone claiming to be secretsenor on  Sat Nov 26 10:52 CST 2005 [RELATED]

Sounds to me like there are some pros and cons with the different set-ups of fuel injection. My simple understanding was that if the car was made more fuel effecient then all things would work more effectively. Eg. acceleration and traffic and cruising. I am not looking for a race set-up or street rod - just something that is tweaked up with a few cheap modifications to be as reliable and effecient as can be expected.

For a stock b20 with the original set-up how would you begin to make it as fuel effecient as possible. I was thinking - elec ignition and fuel injection - maybe cool air (I have asked a similar question on the 1800 list).

Is there something simple that I am missing or anything else that I should consider?
