Off topic but how exactly does too much octane booster ruin an engine?

Car looks cool man, LOVE the extractors!

Nice car mate, I called to have a look at it the day you bought it!

Out of interest, could you let me know where you got your Brides from and how much they were? I'd appreciate it

Hey, its running again, NICE!

I figured the old engine didn't have much to go, glad you sourced a blacktop replacement though. Its like nothing ever changed in it, apart from the lack of black smoke from the exhaust :lol: I'd prolly agree with the octane booster theory too, but no air filter was run on the engine, so that never helps matters in any way.

Still looks good hey, the funniest thing is that the car was built up waay before 86s were even popular, yet it still looks very cool and sporty. Gets a smile from my face everytime I see it

Should meet up again some time, if one of us has time
