Here is what I have now and its an 88 Winnebago with a 351 Ford injected engine and it does get 9 miles to the gallon and I swear if I drive it right I can get 12 to 13 MPG but that's driving at 55 to 60 mph on a nice strait freeway. The only thing wrong with my rig is that I want a seperate bedroom and this one doesn't have one.

Remember, RVs are not very aerodynamic. They cut the wind like a brick. Also with the weight being so high it is a very heavy brick at that. Being a Ford Man I would stick with the 351. Do you have an overdrive? if not add an over/under drive unit. Maybe also put on some flowthrough dual exhausts. What year and make is your rig? Maybe someone else can give you more modifications if they knew that.
