93 Octane...
Trying to cut corners on fuel quality for a vintage L78 engine is a risky adventure. I understand some folks may not have access to race fuel, but finding it is worth the effort. These motors crave octane and run best with an aggressive timing curve...no place for low octane fuel. We have 112-115 Sunoco five minutes away...it ain't cheap, but it smells great, burns cool and make the L78 come alive. In a pinch I use 100 octane av gas...
Bottom line...find the best fuel...it's worth the time and money
