    Should I bother splashing a little ACES in with the c12 just to be safe?

    With 19 cc heads you’re not even stressing C12 very hard. That’s the spec fuel in DSRA and ODBA. There are guys running 280 lbs of compression on it, and probably more in some cases

    I run 112 with 17 cc cups with no problem. I do add a splash of ACES not because it does anything to the octane but because of its Top Cylinder Lubricity characteristics. But if you race with a club that specs fuel. Dont use it. Youll get DQ'd

    Wow. Ive never had a motor with 250psi cranking compression. Possibly static but not off the starter you must like: EM tight “A”

    I run 17cc's on one of my 24's and the cranking compression is 295 psi's.
    If I don't ask any questions, I'll never learn anything.

    Couple guys tried 16cc last season and kept breaking stuff, and it wasn’t really any faster than 19cc I don’t think.

    Hope i remember where I left my drag before catahoula rolls around haha
