I will take that task of getting 600 on one fill -- now... how do I convert the trunk into a secondary fuel tank? Think! Think!

Lwin, all you need to do is average 33.5 mpg & you've got your 600 miles. If you can find a 600 mile flat stretch of road, & don't exceed 65 mph, you could probably pull it off. Of course, if you can keep an SVX under 65 on a flat, straight road, for over 9 hours, you'll probably fall asleep, & wind up in a ditch anyway. Never mind!
Ron.

I can't keep anything let alone THE SVX under 65 mph. I have to have speed otherwise it gets too boring. But then again, I am the person that race the cops on the Lake Shore drive (in my old days)

Certainly for my year I will win! Might be a few 97s though that could beat me...

I have a '92 (1st reg Jan '93) and I have just clocked up 35k
