What Is The Range On 280 Gallons You Think At Cruise Speed 3800 Rpms

Re: speeds out of a 42 tiger
 
thats a good question. i would say 3800 to 4000 is the sweet spot. you should cruise at 55 to 60 mph and should get 3/4 a mile per gallon to be safe. maybe more it is hard to tell being that it is a carb setup with a non step bottom

Close to a mile to the gallon.

Also, speeds will be more like 70-72 mph with that setup
