My daughter's 1986 3/4 ton Dodge with 360, 4 bbl carb and 727 automatic got about 10 mpg. I swapped it out for a 318, same 4 bbl carb and same 727 automatic and it still gets about 10 mpg. I suspect that replacing the 4 bbl for a 2 bbl would be good for about 1- to 2-mpg more, but don't have the proof. The 318 pulls just as hard as the 360 did, so overall power seems about the same. This makes sense to me for the similar mileage
