pulley drop

With 100 octane gas could I drop a pulley size for a few runs at the track?

That depends... Do you have supporting mods to go with the pulley drop? Are you tuned for 100 octane? Seems kind of risky to me...

Possibly, but for the price of 100 octane gas, you could do the supporting mods to run a smaller pulley every day.

Oh, fwi, headers, 3" cat and I am running a 3.4 now with minimum kr even when 103 degrees

Not running 100 octane permanantly, I did put some in today (6.5 gal) and wow!

Tuned for 100 octane??

Did you mix the 100 octane with any 91-93 in the tank, if so you knocked that 100 octane down.

Yes, I do know that, it was near empty and the increase in power was substantial to say the least and "fun"

Probably leaded? It'll wreck your cat in a hurry.

Unleaded of course

Should be fine then. To be honest I plan to have a couple "tricks up my sleeve" for the eventuality that I need to surprise someone.
