I have 110 octane gas available here for $7.00/gal. or $5.90 in 55 gal drums.
Is this a good price or do I keep shopping?
Also they have alky available.
Thanks
Frank

Frank, if you are planning on that in the Duster, if I remember right it isn't high enough compression to need racing gas. I think you will be ok on 93 octane, at the most 100 race gas.

:shock: :shock: Final compression ratio came out to 9.4:1 I believe. Don't burn it up just yet Frank! 93 should work just fine. :wink:

:shock: Frank, I sell Sunoco race fuel and I have to admit, that's a right fair price for 110. How much compression will you have on the Cuda? We sell a 100 unleaded that's proved to be very popular with the street/strip crowd and street rodders. Looks like we'll have something technical to go over at St. Louis. I'll bring my information flyers with me. RICK

Im just trying to get my ducks in a row and not play the "build it they will come" game.
Rick we had Sunoco in Ohio. I think it was 107 or 105 you could buy at any of the stations. ( We lived about 15 miles from National Trails)
I used to service all the communications for National Trails 15-20 years ago.
