Fuel consumption

Right been working out the consumption on Iceman for a while and with a mix of fast highway and twisty third gear non OD hills i get a regular 22.88MPG or 8.1km/ltr.
The motor has a shaved head, SU carb, Overdrive and the timing is a little advanced. Its also running a little cool due to a super efficient rad (just above the lower red section on gauge). Kept speed at a comfortable 90 - 100kph.

Wondering what figures others are getting?:)

and if i can improve it[?]

Well...alright then, maybe just a little...
 
Best I got out of Peggy (Highwayman, O/D gearbox) was about 28mpg on the run up to Commerfest in 2010, mostly 50-60 mph.

If I told you I was a pathological liar, would you believe me?
