Kemco's Octane booster is $20.75 a quart.
32 oz in a quart and they rec 8oz octane boost per gallon. At that rate a $20.75 bottle will treat 4 frigin gallons! That raises 93 to 101 octane. (8 pts)
Same amount boost in 8 gallons will raise octane from 93 to 97. (4 pts)
One quart Kemco boost in 16 gallons will get you 95 octane. For $20.75?
There site says "will get 2-16 point increase in octane" If you use a full quart for every 2 gallons you'll get 16 pt octane improvemnt.

The local Speedway sells Race fuel. I think 110 octane. I just fill a 5 gallon can and add it to my tank.

My street 383 runs just fine on BP (Amoco fuel)premium. I put a few gallons 110 in once in a while anyway. Maybe waste of money but it's not $20.75 a quart.
Talk to your local speed shops I bet they know all the local places the sell Race fuel other than a track or airport.

It seems ALL octane boost is a waste of money.
I guess if you carry a quart on Kemco boost in your trunk it might be of use in an emergency. Like the only open gas station only has 87 octane.



the mixing ratio is not 8oz per gallon, it is more like 1-2 oz per gallon and that is enough TEL to boost the octane in 1 gallon from 93 to about 96, plus the cost per bottle is much less if you buy a case which brings the cost down to about $10 per bottle, it is actualy quite cost effective.
