Did you know that certain import cars (though mainly older ones) recommended mid-grade 89 Octane?
The LT1/LS1 cars recommend premium fuel, but most get away with running regular. I, personally, use what my car genuinely needs. I have 4 degrees timing advance, higher compression, and a cam... my car requires 94 Octane, called "Super Premium", only two stations in our whole city have it, and I live two minutes away from one of them.
When I get an LS-series motor, it'll be seeing premium, or if I mod it, back to super-premium.
