cam and stroker mpg?

This is a question more out of curiosity, as I am probably a few years away from actually considering doing these. I also realize that you don't do these kind of mods with mileage on your mind. None the less, I am just curious how your gas mileage was affected compared to stock when you dropped your cam in? Stroked it? Most notably, I am interested in the 416, but I would love to hear about all of them.

Now I could floor it at every light or stop sign, and yes it would probably get 8-10 mpg city! But I try to drive easy most of the time! Lol!
