Thinking of upping my compression from 10.23 to the range of 11.5 with my 440-1 heads. 91 octane is highest unleaded around here. A drum of C12 figures out at 11$ a gallon. Can I blend C12 and unleaded and run 11.5 comp. E85 is also not available close. Galen

Use this mix formula for a good idea of what ratio to make a certain octane...
