Default can i get away with this?

i'll be running about 11.0:1 CR with a D1 only running about 8-10 lbs of boost this season until winter then i figure ill swap to a deeper dish piston and larger CC combustion chamber...

but for the time being can i run 93 gas on a D1 with about 10lbs max with 11:1 CR....
i might even get a drum of 104 and mix 1 gallon per tank to be safe if you think it will be work my time.

I'll probably turn my direct port kit into a wet single nozzle and spray a 50 or 100 shot with c14...

TIA

You can if you use straight C16, that could get a little expensive though

With a good intercooler I would stay at 7-8lbs or so with pump gas IF you have forged pistons. I would run straight 104 with 10psi. Lot of factors involved but you are asking for trouble at 10psi with pump gas..

get a set of 6.0L heads and bolt them up....that will lower your CR a bit...you can get them for around 200-250 used.

6.0 heads are the easiest, at your boost level for now you dont need the greatest heads. A set of unported 6.0L heads with good valves and a good valve job is all you need.. What size chambers do you have now?

Unfortunately spending money is a necssary side effect or using forced induction
