If anybody has any information on burn rate of fuels with different
octane ratings, I'd love to see it. Every reference I've seen seems
to indicate that there is no significant difference in burn rate between
lower vs. higher octane fuels (at least in the range available as
pump gas).
I still agree with Dave, other than that.
