Only 90 Octane: is 10 PSI boost possible ?
Reducing pulley size from Maggie stock 3.7" to 3.2"
Best pump gasoline within 2000 miles is 90 Octane.
Making 10 PSI manifold pressure, is that safe on 90 octane swill ?
high speed spark is 14 degrees, down to 11 degrees in the 2000-2400 range.

Sea Level. 300 yards from the beach.
Cool dense air this time of year, barometric pressure 1035 miliBar.
. Making 170 KPa broadly, and peak at 175 KPa.
. Maybe I will try another degree or 2 of spark.
Don't want to tune to the ragged edge in winter, then run into trouble when IAT goes above 50 degrees F.
.
I can blend fuel at home, have used Toluene, and easy access to 100LL aviation gasoline, but can't use much of the AvGas, more than 2 percent might poison my O2 sensors.. Okay for playing around, but I don't want to TUNE the rig for better fuel than obtainable on the road.
