What kinda performance mods do yall think i should do to my soon to be daily driven 283 SBC. It is droped in a '79 Z28. I need atleast 18 mpg so boring tha hell outta it is outta tha question. It is rated at 220 -315 Hp. How much power would full bolt-on's give me? Would it seriously kill my gas mileage?

First, tell me what you have done or are going to do to the engine. Cam profile, piston, intake, carb, exhaust, etc. We'll go from there. Please also let me know what you mean by full bolt ons. Some people's definition is completely different from others.
