Good numbers! I believe you will see your LS3 mpg numbers increase from now on. My mpg now longer works since my build but I did keep track of it during a trip from AZ to KS on the interstates...

Yes you would like the 3.73s. That is what I have in my 92. At 85 mph I'm running at 2900 rpm but still get 22 mpg with my LS3 Hot Cam as long as I'm not running the AC.

Very nice. I went with the LS376/480 GMPP engine instead of the LS7 due the difference in pricing in 2010: $9,000 vs. $27,000.

That's great, hope you only have minor problems from now on. It took about 6 months of frequent driving for me to work out all the bugs in my build. Be patient!
