I commented on same post in 2010... Squatch hasn't posted any results since that I have searched for. This type of mileage would be shouted from the rooftops if more than one person achieved same results. I'd question speedo accuracy in relation to posted MPG results after Final drive regearing...
The Bosch CIS/'K-Jet' mechanical injection won't work on the 230 due to Siamese'd intake ports on Dodge manifold - You'd need 1 injector per cylinder. Likewise, the EFI system from a Jeep 4.0 straight-6 engine won't adapt, as it also is a 6-port/6 injector setup. And a 'tuned Weber' will never...

I see that you still haven't simply bought a CUCV, or mounted the M37 cab/bed on a CUCV frame? :)
Where are you measuring to get track width? From drum mounting face to drum mounting face?
Ahem.... http://www.g741.org/PHPBB/viewtopic.php?f=5&t=4924 - wheels are too narrow for the tires, but...
The HOA is most likely using the definition of 'truck' as based on MD DMV or city/town ordnance interpretations. My wager is that the 29 October hearing will result in something that the OP won't be interested in hearing.
