[QUOTE="SndyRds, post: 171045, member: 21650"] Aircraft engines run at very slow RPM's, Typically 4,000 is a high power setting for a general aviation aircraft. Avgas is made for steady power settings and low speeds, it made to burn with a slow flame front and consistancy. The added octane in Avgas is negligable, you'd be happier with Race gas. I've read alot about this over the years. I've been riding for about 27 years and an aircraft mechanic for 14 years. Also most aircraft cruise at about 2,500 RPM this is not the same enviornment as your motercycle. FWIW Id go with the jet fuel if your running a turbine (not turbo). Just kidding. People rave about Avgas all the time, I think it's a placebo effect. [/QUOTE]
