Mileage between a TST #11 plate and the stock plate moved forward....

[Dan_69GTX]

For those who have done this, Did you have any difference in mileage between using the stock fuel plate slid forward vs a TST (in my case a number 11) plate installed using their template?



I'm pleased with the performance of my truck now - with the stock plate slid forward, but I'm wondering how much more or less mileage I'd get with the TST plate. I'll never argue with more power!!



Thanks for your responses.

The plate is just a fancy throttle stop. So any change in milage is dependant on your right hoof.

Once I quit using all the extra power the #11 plate was at least as thrifty as stock, moved forward or not. With #11 and 370s I get 17. 2 around town and 21 on hiway and always have 900 lbs of fuel and tools in i t.

Deezul 1- What mileage did you get before the 370s?

Slightly lesson the old ones, I think new injectors versus one with 100,000 on them made it a pretty even trade off. I couldnt see a consistant difference between the 2 as long as I kept off the loud pedal.

The 370s where a drop and gain for me... . I lost about 3/4 mpg around town and gained 1 mpg on the freeway.
