I'll stick with 100 LL AV gas. It will sustain 12-1 compression no problem. I have run it in my dirt track cars and my drag car for years. I run it in my blower motor in my boat. It makes 13 lbs. boost and no intercooler.....no problem there either. It is only 2.99 gallon. I just bought twenty gallons this weekend. It has lead in it...good for valves. Downside.... no upper cylinder lubrication. I fix that by mixing marvel mystery oil in it at a 100 to 1 ratio which actually raises the octane slightly also. Also another downside is it doesnt have as much explosive power ounce per ounce as compared to race gas. Good idea to jet up a few sizes also.

yeah, we all dig avgas but it creates alot more egt than e85 does. i read the whole link texas-19 was nice enough to give us, and those guys are seeing over 100 degrees(most runnin 15+lbs of boost with full 36 degrees total timing!) less egt than on race fuel/avgas and better hardware results with the e85 over methanol. how much timing are you able to feed at 13lbs boost? i bet you'd get another 5-6degrees more on the e85 instead of avgas and it cleans the mill constantly.
