Nobody!? I figured somebody would be running this instead of VP. I can get a 55 gallon drum of 116 for $450! Try getting VP for $8 bucks a gallon!

Is this the company that used to be Torco? If so it's most likly very good fuel, as I had very good luck using Torco for the last 3 years.

The link above doesn't work by the way.

They used to be a big Torco distributor, that is where I thought they were linked, read the about us on the website.

It looks like they started doing their own fuel, which may, depending on alot of things, be a very close fuel to torco.

If you can get it for a reasonable proce, try it. Just be careful with the tuneup's initially, pull a few extra degrees and make sure you have a wideband on the car. The specific gravity of the fuels look good for what that's worth, if it was available in my area I would try it. The 118 Nos fuel looks like almost exactly the same spec's as Torco 118, probably behaves similar.

Thats pretty much what we figured. we are going to test it out in the 346 and see how it preforms before putting it on the new motor..

Not a bad idea.

I'd look at the specific gravity, and the lead content of the fuel, if the 2 are the same as torco is/was, you probably have the same thing again.

I wish I was closer to you I'd pick up a 5 gallon pail of the 118Nos and try it out when I get things going again.
