So who's going to be the 1st to run 14:1 pistons to keep up with the forced induction guys?
I know I can run 12:1 on street gas if I put in gears.

Brian, I have been looking into the E85 for a C6 ZO6 race car I am building. E85 is 105 octane and it sounds like a good choice even though it will require more fuel onboard. We are looking into now.

Brian, I am thinking there are already SM2 cars in excess of 12.0:1, I may have been driving one myself

Good to hear.
GT1 and NASCAR engines are a bolt in for old cars. 800-900hp and 10k rpm!
I just wish the rule writers would pull their heads out of their butts and allow FI for engines over 4.0L. It would be nice to put a blower/turbo on it, and just turn the wick up when I'm at an event, then turn it down for the street.
