Has anyone tried a cool can set up? Old school, I know. I was thinking of putting one together for my Ghia in hopes of getting slightly better gas mileage. I'm already getting around 37mpg, but as an ongoing experiment, I thought this might be fun. Any thoughts?

Dual Sims Kadrons with SVDA, 110 cam, in a 1600 dual port with header and stinger. The tires are 165/75r 15. Stock '71 Ghia, overall. The car came in just over 1850 lbs last time I weighed it.
