I've been running 40% avgas w/ super for 16 psi boost, but wouldn't some VP C12 or C16 mix more ideal?
If it were available to me, I'd run some Sunoco 100 or other high-end, "street-legal" fuel. I'm trying to mix my own using only super unleaded w/ either racegas or avgas w/ oil. I know about SG differences and I may be trying to mix something that won't stay mixed. I want the best octane range for best street performance w/o overdoing it and killing power potential. Advice greatly appreciated https://www.nopistons.com/forums/pub...1047683894.gif |
You can purchase 55 gallon drums of Sunoco and VP fuels.

i wonder what the demand is for fuel over 100 octane in a typical large city.

Methanol.

Is anyone in this forum running a high-performance fuel or a mix? Are you running 20 psi on pump super? Me, Keith, Mick, Charlie, Ron, and Britney want to know.

well theres a sunco around here that has it but its like 3.30 or something a gallon, im not exactly sure, but you cant directly pump it into your tank you have to put it in a contaior first.
just go find a local airport if you have no cat and don't mind changing oxygen sensors. what is the difference compared to av gas then? not leaded? |
Sunoco 100 in unleaded and is street-legal.
I have been using avgas. Gasolines have differing specific gravities causing them to possibly not stay mixed like when you mix gal. of low-lead avgas with 12 gal. of super unleaded for weekend playtime to safely run at high boosts of 16 psi and up. Since I am not getting any replies to my question, I will do my own unscientific testing by mixing super-avgas, super-C12, and avgas-C12 in 1:1 ratios in glass jars. I'll post my observations. |

I'm running a street car. Methanol isn't practical for a street car. My street car is not set up for methanol. I would consider running Foster's ethanol. It smells and tastes like it could possibly yield some sort of power gain ......... that is if I can keep it well hidden from Keith.
