Darn I love a yellow pickem up truck. :)
4:11 gears and a 350-400 CI engine? Not much can be done cheap.
Make sure the vacuum advance works and is spot on for timing, Make sure the power valve is ok and air cleaner is clean. Free flowing exhaust may help a little,along with a Genesee (sp?) electronic ignition conversion kit and hot coil.
My old yellow 80 GMC crewcab one ton,also makes 10 mpg with normal mixed driving. Gotta remember it weighs 6500 pounds with tractor like gearing and the aerodynamics of a brick.
