[Tigers] Gas Milage

[wsamouce]

$4000 to install a 5 speed ='s 1538 gallons of fuel (@$2.60 a gal).  

@16 mpg (current mileage) ='s 24,608 miles.
@26 mpg (possible with overdrive 5 speed) ='s 39,998 miles

15,380 miles more with same amount of fuel.

I would have to make the 3200 mile round trip 4.8 times to pay for the 5
speed.

I have done some work on my distributer with Ron Fraser's help.  I also plan
on installing smaller primary jets for the trip.  Need to do another mileage
check.
