Junior...changes to the induction system, different heads, cam or whatever changes the kinetic energy of the air/fuel mixture. This energy helps vaporize the fuel. Fuel has its own ability to vaporize (different reid pressures). Then you race in various weather conditions.

Bottom line...fuel choice can be a moving target and one to constantly flog for your combo. If you make a change, start over.

the reason for running sunoco is it's 3 miles from the house & it's $5.49 a gal! VP their's no place around here that has it!! Plus in the seven years I've been running stock it's never failed tec.
