Can you run pump gas? I would love to have a 306 with 725 Ilmors.

I'll run 7-7.5 lbs of boost on pump gas and run 119 mph. But I do my boating in Arizona, where they are adding 10% ethanol on gas at the pump, I try and stay away from that and use 100 octane unleaded when I run 8-10 lbs of boost and 110 for 10-14 lbs. Both are available at the pump in Havasu.

I personally think the Ilmor's are overrated, they are light and make good power stock. But if you need to get parts for them they are very expensive and modifying them for more power is ridiculously expensive.
