I must agree and disagree with your comments. The 360 get cruddy gas mileage agreed but the 318 get worse gas mileage when turning taller tires. This is because a 318 requires full throttle to get up to speed. I have found that the 318 gets about the same mileage as my 440 mag. The 360 seems to get the best mileage while being in the middle of the power band between the 440 and the 318. It has enough power to get going without the 4 barrel and its small enough not to just burn the gas like the 440. But same here just my 2 cents man
