Tom, Thanks for the thought, but the car can be driven just fine right now. It is just not operation at optimum, and it obviously wouldn't be with a "compromise tune" designed to allow it to just "operate" on various mixes. The car drives fine on 93
octane I Just need to take about 5 degrees of timing out of it, and that costs quite a bit of power. I am sure it is still over the 400 RWHP mark, so in a 3000 lb package, its not boring. Going to a thicker head gasket would change the quench area for the worst, I am doubtful it would be enough, or do any good. It could easily change the detonation issue for the worse.
