I'm just using pump fuel but what you have to understand is that hypertec Pistons aren't forged there just standard Pistons with a ceramic coating.
Plus my boost controller cuts the boost to 8 psi if the mixtures get to lean

The important thing is that the motor ,powerglide , drive shaft and diff are bullet proof so no matter what I throw at the car from now on I know nothing will break.
