According to Hineman, you've earned it. He's quite the gossip.

Keeping the boost below 10psi, he got nearly 55mpg on a 100 mile trip. On the dyno, made 699.9xhp.
Hope that helps.

This is hard to believe I know, but I went to macon to the mall filled up
drove around 65 on the flats used no more than 2 or 3 psi going up hills
so it would fall back to 60 62 or so. got back to town filled up till it justabout ran out on the ground 105 miles on the speedo took 1.9 gallons
you have got to keep in mind 321 gears 22inch tires with .62% overdrive
it is basicly idling which burns about a gallon an hour which is exactly
what we used! It is cool to have the option to kill a street car or get
stupid fuel economy! Just depends on your mood for the day, I usually
dont get but 15 or so
