Thanks. So it gets slightly less fuel economy than my cat with twin big blocks. Guess the cat is staying.:party-smiley-004:

Oh yea, a cat will be more efficient in the fuel department. Especially when you consider the 292 is 7500+ lbs loaded. Although the 292 sure is comfortable! Stand-up power bolsters, plush interior and cabin, and it knocks the waves down pretty good too! It's all in what you are looking for...

Yes, take it from someone who got rid of his Eliminator to buy this tanker, "Keep the cat". :rolleyes:
