    302 modifications

    What modifications can be made to the GMC 302 to increase mileage and overall performance. I don't want a hot rod. I just need to have an effecient engine and want to optimize mpg.

    switching from DOT 5 to DOT 4 brake fluid

    I would bet my last nickle on the fact that the discussion of the military engineers and those on this forum is similar. The ability of DOT 5 to not absorb water was the over rideing factor in the change. The master cylinder design collecting a few drops of water is a heck of a lot better...

    switching from DOT 5 to DOT 4 brake fluid
