6.2 Cucv blazer MPG?

I have a 82 which had a t400 and np208 same setup as the mil type and got 22-23 but I know that they run higher gears. Maybe shave a mpg off do to that fact.
 
My K-5 is pretty close to a mil spec blazer.

The mil specs had a Th400, Np208 and axle gears of 3.08:1.

My K-5 has an SM465, NP208 and axle gears of 3.08:1.

The Sm465 and Th400 have basically the same gears, save for you shift one manually. Only difference now is mine has the Banks kit on it.

I can get between 18-22 out of it i'd say. I've never sat down and did the math though.
 
I had an 82 K5 that was bone stock with the 700R4 tranny, 3.42 gears.
The stock 6.2 would get 24-25 Hwy and 18 around town.

Had an 86 2500 Burb 4x4 with the 6.2, 4.10 gears TH400 tranny.
This one would do 20-22 Hwy and 16 around town.
