Re: C-16 fuel in a stocker
Our Demons figure @ 11.8 to 1 and run the best on C11 even
with timing on the edge of Detonation last couple hundred feet. What combo are you racing and how much compression?

63 Dodge Polara - Max Wedge 13.5-1
Do I need to re-jet carbs or anything with timing? |

Re: C-16 fuel in a stocker
I am not a fuel chemist, but to my knowledge octane reduces detonation in higher compression engines due to slower burn time, in a stocker with lower compression C16 it would only slow it down,as it burns slower, I agree with GTX John on C11.

Re: C-16 fuel in a stocker
I would check if c11 has enough octane for 13.5 to 1 compression before using it.
