Octane supreme

I've been using this for 15 years or more in my '65 GTO for the octane boost it gives. It absolutely works. My '65 GTO with the 389 has milled heads and a true 11:1 CR (I built it back in 1981) and needs the octane to avoid detonation. On my '67 GTO, which I actually drive a lot, I ended up swapping to lower compression heads and am able to run 91 octane pump gas.

Yikes, they aren't giving that stuff away. $33 shipped for a 32 ounce can. More than a dollar an ounce.
Mixed to add 5 octane points according to the chart, that one can won't even treat a 20 gallon tank.

I guess if you guys don't drive your cars more than a few times a year it may be worthwhile. For those that drive even somewhat frequently and fill up even just every other week, that's going to put a dent in the pocket book.

Calm down, everyone. I'm deleting several posts that served no purpose other than to raise a simple question into a pissing match.
