    Default best fuel for lt1?

    I got a 95 z28 with HCI done to it. Any advantage to running non-oxy gas through it? I noticed we just recently got a pump at my local station. Pros/cons of running it?

    If your referring to no ethanol, that's what I run. Not sure if it's good for anything power wise but I don't want a blended fuel. There's some folks here who are smarter than me with that stuff hopefully they'll chime in.

    Ethanol sucks. Running pure gas in my daily driver pushes the miles per tank from 300 to 350. Ethanol isnt the greatest for sitting in fuel tanks/systems. Hell i can hear my truck idle quieter on pure gas.

    I run methanol in my drag car and it is similar to ethanol in terms of how bad it is for your fuel system. I have to clear the pump lines out every weekend and spray starting fluid with the fuel shut off to burn the stuff out of the engine.

    Methanol and E85 are world's apart. Or are you referring to pure ethanol?
