Ethanol free premium in some parts of the country = 89 octane marine fuel.

I like running at least 91 and even more so 93 octane.
Valvitec marine fuel is good stuff as i use it in my boat.
But it is rated at 89 octane.

That's not always true, both the places I found where I live are 91 octane, what would be the point of trucking in ethanol gas and have it be low octane.

Not always true but it depends on where you live. It's 89 octane here in SC.

Olson Brothers Tire on HWY 99 in Portland Oregon. Good family folks with a passion for old school machines.

94 octane non-ethanol premium at about $.30 per gallon more than average. Of course you can get all kinds of race fuels around here since we have 3 tracks, but they are a bit too pricey for running as a main fuel.
