    21 cc heads

    i know head gasket thickness plays a role,but what should the cranking compression be with a 1997 merc drag?what is the minumum octane fuel required and what brands do u prefer?i have succesfuly ran 100 octane av gas for years with 26cc so iam thinking around 105 to 108 octane max.
