What is the highest octane that you can safely run in a raptor 660 with stock carbs

Octane isn't going to hurt a raptor...its only gonna slow it down.

Well for a car the higher the octane (92) the better it performs

stock raptors ( COmpression) take 87 octane. anything higher on stock compression SLOWS YOU DOWN. with a 10.75:1 - 11:11 you need to run 91 or 93 (Premium) 12:1 you need 50/50 race gas. with 13:1+ you need straight race gas.
