As far as it goes witht he old lead stuuf I know you could get 110oct. ------------------ Francis Taracido Sniper0666@aol.com Proud Patron of Quadzilla DZAUTO Jun 23rd, 99, 3:37 PM The DX-SUNRAY Oil Company originally had its home offices in Tulsa, OK. In the Okla City area the stations were just called DX. Same thing as SUNOCO (for Sun Oil CO.). The DX 260 in the Okla City area was advertised as 103 octane. Before the 1973 oil embargo, I used to buy it for .29-.32cents/gal. Used it in my '51 Chev with a 12:1 327 and in my jet boat with an 11:1 LT-1 350 (yep, same boat today with the 420SB). ------------------ 260 Jun 23rd, 99, 11:14 PM DZAUTO, Thanks for your help!You just made me 20 bucks!I knew it was 103!!!! ------------------ Dean Ciampi Autumn Gold 1970 LS6 Chevelle Team Chevelle Gold #52 Aces #3094 COPO Jun 24th, 99, 6:00 AM I thought it was 104. But hear are the current ratings for all Sunoco Fuels. http://www.bconnex.net/~noco/sunrace.htm Mark | ||
