Yessiree, Vigil...

100+RON is what a Judsonized motor was
meant to burn "back in the days" in consideration of the maximum in cylinder filling (dynamic compression ratio) bought about by  supercharging, in accordance with the literature which originally accompanied the blower.

And this is especially the case with "vane-type" blowers considering their penchant
for "compression heating" of inducted air.

Europe comes pretty close with their
unleaded 98RON though I do not know
whether this is available continent-wide.

Mine ran fine on my stock 8.8-1 1275 on
CAM2 "purple" but this got expensive at
US$6.00 a US gallon. Even more expensive
today.

I remember seeing this car in previous
pictures, Vigil. Nice machine! :)
