At the same cruising speed the engine is doing less work so using less fuel.
This is only on a long run, in traffic or round town it's not so great but I have size 11's and like using them!
On a long run the 2276cc gets about 23MPG so about the same as a stock lump 8)
Same here. I was amazed to find the mpg had gone from 25 to 28. I think the longer gears helped too.
