no but it will wreck O2 sensors. Small price to pay!

At a dragstrip near you.

I think Sunoco sells like 100oct. or maybe more. I'm really not sure b/c we don't have them around me.

Around here in Houston, alot of shops have switched to Sunoco from VP. I guess they have a bigger profit margin, but Sunoco does not make a C16. I also looked through the variety of fuel they have listed on there site and they don't have a fuel specified for forced induction cars??? But anyway's this is the number for VP in California,
909-674-9167. They will point you in the right direction!

 

kool well thanks for the info

c16 is 117 octane, leaded gas. if run only on the weekends, your o2 should last at least a year.

heres the web site: http://www.vpracingfuels.com/v...eaded

 

If you want to buy some race gas and you have a garage, the cheapest and easiest thing to do is buy a 55 gallon drum. It's there whenever you need it and you'll save a few bucks a gallon.

I would also like to know.

 

the lead is good for the fuel injectors and the valve seats because the lead acts as a lubricant. american cars had a huge problem with this (killing valve seats) in the 70s
