So detonation breakes apex seals! Ask me how I know! It lasted me 4000 miles. It was a fun 4000 miles though. When I rebuilt it I replaced everything but the apex seals. BAD MOVE!!! So I was getng on the freeway just filled up the gas tank. I was pulling through 2nd @ 9 psi slammed 3rd heard pop. let off the throttle kank, then no power and rough as hell. Sweet now I get to crack it back open put new apex seals in and port it some more!!! LOL!!! I'm a fuggin idiot... Oh here's the best part I have neen running Arco 87 octane with 2 storke cause I'm cheap and it had been fine. So I filled up with 89 and put in some MMO. and now it detonates. Lesson don't buy Citgo gas...
