Just got a 66 427-390hp. What are you guys with big blocks and or higher compression engines running for fuel? Any problems with 10% ethanol? What about octane boost. What brand do you use if any?

The only problem I've experienced with up to 10% ethanol is it gums up the small holes in carburetors in yard equipment I don't use much.
(Or is that as often as I should use it?? )
On a sort of serious note- either use the equipment more often, or run the tool dry between uses.
Found a local source of 110 octane racing fuel bulk. (out of a gas pump).

I run the chainsaws to cut wood and the yard tools in season as needed. I don't always need to cut wood in 90+/32C+. Because there is nothing to mow; nor do I mow in winter.
AFA, the cars and truck go; we use Costco's 80 or 93 octane ethanol with no issues. IMO, ethanol seems to gum up matters when the yard equipment isn't used. AFA, the vehicles, it works fine because they don't sit unused for months.
