Fuel octane vs concistancy

Ian Hill · 11-13-2014, 12:57 PM

I have made the jump from Super Stock to .90 and t/s class racing. I have always been limited to 112 octane for the combos i ran, but now with the new car and engine combo i am ready to freshen the engine and am wondering if i can expect more consistancy with the higher octane levels. the engine is currently @ 14:1 and requires C16 or an equivelant. I will look at options between dropping compression to run VP98 through to 16:1 compression.

Your thoughts are appreciated.
