LOL you put fuel economy and big cam in the same sentence.........
I cant keep my foot out of the engine compartment around town... but... on a good note your highway miles will not change.. if anything they could get better... I get about 27 on the hwy... around the city on a good day I can get 15MPG but I generaly get about 12MPG... This is with a stage 2 cam

Fuel Economy, what fuel economy. If anyone bought a Camaro and worries about fuel economy isnt using the car appropiately. Just giving you a hard time but this is a MUSCLE CAR and I love it.

I always drive my cars in spirited manner and only put 94 octane...i rarely check my fuel mileage i only fill when its empty... But i think its interesting to know what others are experiencing... If having a huge cam i cutting 5 mpg on avg driving it may not be for me
