I'm looking to run a 13.5 13.6 @ 102 or so. Need to do it while the air is still cold!
Also can someone tell me where I can get 104 or 110 octane UNLEADED gas?
Can someone help me out here? TIA.
1 gallon of Xylene (117), 3 gallons of 93 and couple oz of marvel mystery oil= 99 unleaded.

I wouldn't THINK you would need 110 or even 104 running in the mid 13's?

Too much can foul plugs and won't make you ANY faster.

No Not true at all! I ran 13.81 with nothing but 93 pump gas, street tires and stock cat back exhaust. I just need LSD, DR's and a few small things now. Then I'll be looking for 13.2 - 13.3!

hey mike... i think he was trying to tell you that you dont really need race fuel of any kind (104-110)
i agree with that... there is no realy need for 100-110 octane fuel unlwess you plan to run tons of boost (more than your 19psi) and lots of timing... say 7 on your sps3 settings (20º advanced give or take)
