I have a 1998 Dodge QC Shortbed 4x4. I filled it up yesterday and I got 11.25 mpg. Anyone getting better? I have a K&N air intake and true dual high flow
exhaust. Gas is now $1.89 where I live but I would still like to get better milage.

Depends upon the type of driving. I have what you have plus the Fastman TB, Headers, and HHO and with Hydrogen on I get 20MPG @ 55mph and 17MPG no hydrogen. I
also get 12.5 to 13 at 75-80 mph no hydrogen. I am working on perfecting the HHO setup for my truck and when finished I will post details.

I once bought a book on converting a vehicle to hydrogen but after reading the first twenty pages i put the book down and never picked it back up. My dad and I
would like to do something to his jeep wrangler but I think it is a little over our heads. I am still debating wheather or not to buy the fastman. I should
probally find a job first. lol. Did the headers make a big difference?

The Headers did make a difference. Took about 6 hours to swap. Some of the bolts are not very easy to get off and then back on around the mandrel bent pipes.
In retrospect I would have the shop do it. I have two v10 trucks and I paid on the first and mistakenly thought I could do it myself cheaper/faster. I figure
the Headers really are necessary to take full advantage of the catback.
