I'm not a big fan on the carbed ls motors I had one with coilpacks and computer controlled then I switched it too a distributer and the computer controlled did not run good at all hard to start always was popping and making all kind of racket, then I switched to the distributer front setup and It acted a lot better but I was never impressed it only made good power at high rpms, I'm by no means a motor guy so I would look into different setups but if your going to drive it alot and want to get good gas mileage the only way to go it with a fuel injected ls motor we put a ls1 with a 6spd in my last 69 camaro and took it on some of the power tour and averaged 29 mpg and it was by no means slow, If you went with a ls2 and some bolt ons you'd have a hell of a setup and get in the mid to high 20 mpgs
