Re: Lower Octane Fuel
Interesting article on running the the right octane fuel by Dan Dvorak.
Go to.........Dvorak Machine / Tech / tech articles/ what about fuel. This article is far from new but only reinforces what is being spoken about today. Last edited by FINESPLINE; 01-23-2014 at 02:02 PM. |

Re: Lower Octane Fuel
Pete you can't run C-25 in these things they are a low compression motor. As far as the record my car will be lucky to run the index now that the PARKER PAN was taken from me. BP

Well, you did run a big block so yeah, you had the high CR in that motor. Don't tell me Demarzo bought your pan, now he'll really fly, might get H.P. How's your burger joint coming along ????

Re: Lower Octane Fuel
Tried VP 100 unleaded while bracket racing . Car does not like it at all . Best bet is find the pump gas that your combo likes. Can't run anything but from the pump in pure stock anyhow

Re: Lower Octane Fuel
who's Parker and what kind of frying pan is he using and what is he cooking in it.
now on fuel I was on the dyno this week and here is the test results. I made 8 pulls on union 76 pre. and got a good base line and then I went over to c-11 much to my surprise their was no gain over the pump gas or loss. so put that in your parker pan and smoke it!!!!!!!!!!!! dyno test 69 chev 255/280 9.0cr engine.
