Mixing gas's
OK im looking at a car with 13.5:1 its a 351 with big probe pistons and a trickflow set up H/I. i have heard of people mixing 110 octane and 93 pump gas. is it worth it or is it just dumb.

RE: Mixing gas's
you'd have to mix more 110 with 93 to the point where it may not be worth it...but if it's got aluminum heads you'll have a slight advantage and with .200 dome pistons and 58 cc heads I was at 11 to 1 on 93 octane all day long and when I ran NOS I mixed 105 with it..so you have to be careful at that ratio you'll be at..may not be worth the gamble

RE: Mixing gas's
Its possible that the compression is lower. so it may not even be an issue. i dont have the exact numbers of the pistons and heads. I would think it would take some real deck hight lowering and huge domes to get that high. thats just what ive been told about the car. I know it has been done and i just wanted to ask because ive never had a car that required that kind of fuel.
.....as for the smart *** comment....
forgive me donald trump... if you can put 16-17 dollar a gallon fuel in a stock tank then allow me to be the first to shake your hand.

RE: Mixing gas's
dont mix fuels. If you have very little 93 in your tank and put 110 in then you should be ok. but do not try to mix half a tank of 93 with some 110 or higher to get a good octane. you just gona blow something up.
