I will get a hold of some coroplast this weekend and do the grille block and rear wheel skit and front/rear wheel air dam.

Welcome! Glad to see another SOHC in the crowd :thumbup:

And, keep us posted on the mods. :cool:

so far...i think the car needs the wheel balanced im getting htat done thursday. as of right now im running on tracer wheels...maybe i might get better gas mileage. lol anyways.
I also just installed a oem muffler to keep the noise down lol. but ill keep u guys updated with every mod i do

Grille Block Mod
 

Grille block has been done...i will do some calculation this weekend becuase im driving down to florida....a 1500 miles trip....with the grille block and a gas leak...a drop ever sec....so with my calculation every droplet is .00251ml and 60 sec x 60 min x 24hr= 86400 drops x .00251ml = 216.864ML x .0002641 [1mil = .0002641 gallon] = .057 gallon....i dont know if i did my calculation right lol.
so hopefully that make me get more mpg when i calculate it.

why not just fix the gas leak?

Just got if fixed before the trips....and i just took a trip down to florida from new york and u will be suprised of the results for the grille block.

Well start a gaslog in the garage already! :p

Gaslog has been added check it outttt.

Oooh! i'm quite jealous of your gas mileage / mph !!!

I am a long time reader on this forum and first time poster. I currently have a 2000 Civic auto that I try to drive for max mpg. I am interested in following your mods and mpg gain as well. I am looking at a grill block for mine.

I would be interested in seeing just how much mileage you could get at say 65 mph and with no cargo and really focusing on max mpg. It might even go mid/high 40's. Good luck to you and keep us posted.
