I have never said 97 octane but it would be nice . What i did say is the Minimum FUEL REQUIREMENT FOR THE LATER 4cylinder and 6 cylinder engines is 93 . Now i am by no means a math major or thermo engineer , But i can read a plug and for the past fifty years built engines carbs and i can defiantly do a dist. i am not a computer wiz and i do not have a scanner if i did i would did out the lab report on the gas we had tested years back . As long as we run the 93 LIKE the owners manual says we have no problems . Yes the compression ratio is up on both 706's due to block decking to true the deck and there was about .007 taken off the deck on one and nine on the other one head took .009 to clean up and one took .012 . NOW the question is was it milled before and how much or are we the first to clean it up ?? If the timing correct yes as both dist. have been run on my machine and one needed a new set of springs and the other needed a new plate. Both run out as per the book stated. is the ing. timing set yes 18 degrees at wide open throttle . Each and everything has been gone over and each and every time they go down it is from someone putting in 87 either the fuel supplier sending out the wrong stuff or the last time My buddys son went to get gas and not thinking got 20 gallon of 87 while mowing away from the main farm as the gas station was a mile away and the farm was eight. I am just stating what the Chemist told us on how the 87 burns verses the 93 that we get today as what they call high test he told us that the 87 is a hot flash burn and that the HIGH test (93) is a cooler longer burn that will give more power from the longer burn.

Today's Featured Article - The 8N and the Fox - by Zane Sherman. Dec. 13 1998, Renfroe, Alabama. Last niht I dreamed about the day that I plowed the field of about 10 acres over on what Jimmy and Dandy called the Ledbetter field. I was driving the 1948 8N Ford tractor that Jimmy bought in 48 new This was prebably in about 1951 and maybe even befor the house was built. This would have made me to be about16 years old and I drove the tractor for nothing and would have paid to drive it if I had had any money which I didn't, but neit ... [Read Article]
