The 10.1:1 is on the 460 (468 really) for my truck, and it is absolutely a high test only motor. Scotty was very particular about that. I worry about mamasita driving it for many reasons, and one is that she will fill two tanks with regular one day while I'm out fishing and I get a sad phone call that she blew my baby up. Her stuff has to be set up to turn the key and the magic ponies run. I did give her the stern, serious talking to on particular gas, particular oil, etc and her eyes glazed over after "So honey, this is important.."

Don't even think of adding diesel to the mix.

Hah! Yeah, the things she's good at, she's awesome. Machinery isn't it. I think she knows better than to put diesel into a gasser, or, heaven forbid vice versa, but let's not test the theory. More than likely, she just gets a sadistic kick out of watching me get all fussy and wild-eyed.
