    Gas Mileage

    I did some numbers the other night and am getting around 24mpg, that is combined highway (mostly) and some street driving with the occasional goose I like to give the M50.

    I am running a 95 M50, 93 325i trans 5spd, 3:25 lsd rear diff.
    Seems to rev a lil high at 80mph, may just be me since my tach is not accurate, the old engine was an M42.

    What a difference in power, brings a smile to my face every day!

    I get about 30mpg, I never have to fill up and I love it.

    M50 (stock+rebuilt), 260 trans, 3:73, I also drive it easy and of course the occasional blip of the throttle :D

      A combination of city/highway got me 235 miles on 11 gallons. That's about 22mpg, driving the car lightly...except for the trip to the dragstrip where I made 5-6 passes.

      260trans, 3.73

        I get under 20mpg almost all the time, unless I'm really light on the throttle, and I still get around 22mpg. At the track, I get 8mpg. s52 fully built.
