No, specific 4bbls (spreadbores, typically) can get better cruising mileage.

If you want the best all around carb, imho, get a late 70s Quadrajet with APT rod. As for your earlier complaints on a Qjet, you're doing it wrong. ;) Look up Cliff Ruggles if you need Qjet help. The tiny 2bbls are hyper efficient (well, for a carb) when cruising, but nothing (imho) beats the flood of power when you open those massive secondaries.

Get true dual exhausts. IF you want it quiet, just run a high-flow cat + resonator, and a NON-chambered muffler.

I'm getting a true dual, with some 19 inch borla mufflers, probably a 2 1/4 inch exhaust with an H. if it turns out to be too loud. I'll add some resonators.

Cats are for lameos :p
