101 Octane...18 more Horses

[rt2esq]

My brother in law is one of those import drag racers. He tells me a local 76 dealer sells 101 Octane and that using it will not cause any damage but will boost my bird about 18 horses. That's 270.

Anyone tried this yet?

Don't know for sure but does it have lead in it, is it like Tubro Blue. I can buy that around here but have to get it in cans, for racing only. They will NOT pump it into your street car. I use it in my 69 Vette sometimes.

Your drag racing friend maybe talking about 110 octane NASCAR gas from the 76 dealer. If that is the case in is leaded so don't use it in your TBird. 76 also has an unleaded 100 octane. We use the 110 NASCAR fuel in our street rods and 60's cars. The 110 retails for around $5.00 per gallon.
