I will be running the 11.5:1 piston. Are you saying I should go to a 12.5:1. I really wanted to stay with regular gas.

with the higher compression the hp will be more evident. It will have a good seat of the pants feel. You can buy a torco additive if you feel that the race gas is to pricey or not available.

it's not like you would have to run all race gas but a slight mix i've been hearing around a 100 mix

It is a cheap alternative to 5 dollar a gallon fuel

does it work good ? i was planning on buying a barrel of 120 and going 3-120 and 2 pump it should make for a 109 mix. the barrel is 231 that makes the race 4.20 a gallon, but still not like pump gas.

Anythng over 105 octane is overkill! You can run Pump 100 octane on a 12:5:1 ratio just fine. If i were you Sandman I would run something like VP Red.
