Mike C Posted April 1, 2004 Report Posted April 1, 2004 What octane do i need to run if i advance my timing +4 I have noss head with 20cc domes. Thanks mike clark Quote
jrm312 Posted April 1, 2004 Report Posted April 1, 2004 it all depend on your elevation and compression anything over 155 to 160 you should run 50 /50 race gas and pump, but i no expert do a search on it here you should find the answer, i run 22 domes at 145 compression and im fine with 92 octane.

Mike C Posted April 1, 2004 Author Report Posted April 1, 2004 i think our elevation around here is like 800ft. Quote
dlnoss Posted April 1, 2004 Report Posted April 1, 2004 I'd probably run 50/50 to be safe with +4 Quote
banshee76179 Posted April 1, 2004 Report Posted April 1, 2004 pump gas 93 octane... unless u can afford race gas!! Quote
banshdog Posted April 1, 2004 Report Posted April 1, 2004 I have been running 100 octane race fuel, is that too much? Quote

AVBANSHEE03 Posted April 2, 2004 Report Posted April 2, 2004 USUALLY 155LBS IS BORDER LINE PUMPGAS, MORE THAN THAT UP TO 160 YOU SHOULD ATLEAST DO HALF/HALF, OVER 160 YOU SHOULD RUN STR8 HIGH OCTANE.. BETTER PERFORMANCE TOO, YOU GET WHAT YOU PAY FOR. LIKE JRM SAID. Quote
AVBANSHEE03 Posted April 2, 2004 Report Posted April 2, 2004 BY THE WAY HOW MUCH IS RACE GAS WHERE YOU GUYS ARE AT? Quote
Ducman Posted April 2, 2004 Report Posted April 2, 2004 BY THE WAY HOW MUCH IS RACE GAS WHERE YOU GUYS ARE AT? I can get 100 octane unleaded for $3.00 per gal (thats what I run) 110 for $5.xx and 114 for $7xx Quote

Travis's Banshee Posted April 2, 2004 Report Posted April 2, 2004 Ducman: Where do you get your race fuel? I lived in Red Bluff from '90-'00. We used to buy I believe it was K+S race fuel up on the NE side of Redding. The guy had a smokin' shee w/a 750 4cyl. in it. Was just wondering if it was from the same guy. Think his name was Dennis. I hadn't bought fuel from him since about 96-97 when S+K in RB started carrying VP. Just curious thats all. Quote
AVBANSHEE03 Posted April 2, 2004 Report Posted April 2, 2004 Higher octane doesn't give more power. I SAID PERFORMANCE.. NOT POWER. IT BURNS FASTER. Quote
