with a good tranny and the correct gear and slicks, you should get a 10 with no problems. 11's on street tires if you can feather the throttle right.
Fast enough to get you killed if your not careful anyways.
There are 390's with decent iron heads, aluminum intakes running 400hp/400tq pretty easy naturally aspirated. This is with port work on the heads, aftermarket pistons and a good cam.
If you're wanting fuel economy, stick with the 6 cause a powerful FE is gonna get single digits (since you'll be 'in' it most of the time.)
Unless you're doing a EFI 302 with or without a power adder and a OD tranny, anything that runs 12's and has "git up and go" is going to do poorly in the fuel mileage department. If you have a econo daily driver, then I wouldn't worry, but if this is your only car........
