    From alky to gas?

    What all would be needed to make the switch other than carb changes? And is it true that 114 makes just as much power as alky?

    Well, it's not that simple. Increasing the octane rating doesn't necessarily increase HP. The more HP the motor is capable of making, the higher the octane rating required to get all the potential HP. For instance, if you have a mild 400HP motor in a street stock, running 114 as opposed to 110 isn't gonna do anything except cost you more money.

        Then yes, you definitely want to run 114
