Vikki,

I have 18 heads. Apparently they are high compression heads and should require higher octane gas. I put premium or regular in it 10 yrs ago with no real noticeable difference. What would the symptoms be for this? It was always somewhat coppy but I assumed that was the fireball cam. I am going to rebuild it again.

Have a listen: Nanananan naaaa
