    Which Size Gas Engine?(Cargo Van)

    18-19 rocks!! My best consistent average is about 17.4. 4.8L. 4L80E. Whatever stick gears come in the rear. Now, that's 17.4 when I was doing 70-73 MPH. Lighter the foot, high the average.

    Truck in shop. Pinion bearing too noisy for me. Think I'll leave it in there and get them to diagnose a misfire.
