V8 mpg

(1/4) > >>

LandRoger:
All you peeps that run V8s  rr or Disco s  , what is a realistic figure for this engine , both on a run and when laning ? what is the best setup for  economy -carbs or efi ?  which is the best to go for 3.5 3.9 or other ,

V8MoneyPit:
I usually get around 18mpg from my V8 110. On a bad day, it might get down to 14mpg. It's an early one running Strombergs.

landyman Ash:
V8 3.5 efi RR was doing 21 mpg

V8 hybrid 3.5 with carbs was doing about 11 but it had roll cage, winches etc and serious tyres that weighed it down..... :evil:

Xtremeteam:
V8 110 on a run with su carbs 16-20 mpg


V8 90 racer on the road 12-14,
At an event 2-14 mpg  :lol:

Knowing what I know.....  14 on the racer is VERY generous.

2 mpg is far more likely  :wink:  :wink:  :wink:  :wink:
