Re: 104 Octance Boost?
There's 110 available in some stations as racing fuel but I remember when Sunoco had over 100 octane available at the regular pumps.Oh the good old days!

That old c117 and the dc49 The C1A cod you could break part of the wings off shoot them full of holes and they kept flying some times on one engine. C1A had twin 5000hp RR engines.
