I'm sure I am not alone when I say I am building a new engine, this one will be a 360 turbocharged W2 head roller cam engine.
The dilemma I am experiencing now in my head is about the gasoline and what it will be like during the summer of 2011. I know this may seem funny to some but I don't quite understand where the octane rating will come from once the EPA ups the ethanol from the now 10% to the 15% which is now allowed. I guess what I am saying is that when they raise the ethanol to 15% will they also raise the octane of the gasoline to make up for the ethanol which basically has no octane rating or will they play some kind of game at our expense as its been throughout our lives?
Whats your take...
