Random Engine MPG Questions!

These are just some random questions I really want to know, but not really a concern to me...

1. MPG for 305 TPI, Stock/From Factory/ETC.

2. Same, but for TBI, If any...

3. MPG for a 350, Stock from some IROCs...

4. Does a HO 305 or HO 350 consume for Gas, same, less?

5. What do you guys consider good MPG for a 305? (TPI)

6. Ways to improve MPG? (305 TPI)

7. What gas should I use and for what reason, expain the types...ETC 87, 89, 91, 93 octane... these are all the choices I have at my station....
Racing, Cruising, ETC...



If you can't answer some of these... it's ok...

-Peace

Why do you Really want to know, but you aren't concerned? But my 305 TBI 5-speed has always got about 22 MPG avg. and 28-31 on long road trips.

I am really asking some of the questions, so I can answer them if somebody asks me... "Are Camaro's good on GAS?" ETC.
