Default What would happen if ...

I put 100 Octane Race Gasoline into my Monte Carlo? I know this is a really stupid question but I was just curious... I won't attempt to test it and find out, but on a scientific standpoint what would happen? eg. (would I blow a rod or damage the computer) ...
Fyi.. not that it means anything, but my car is the E85 edition with the yellow gas cap so I know it can run Ethanol.

Just cause you have a E85 doen't mean it can handle that high of a octane..I think it is crazy and you will regret doing it

Your MCwill run rich. Worst case scenario is cylinder wash. It may not happen right away but long term it wont be good.

Hey, where is your car parked?

Kinda looks more like El Segundo or Redondo Beach than South L.A.

I know where that it....off of La Cienega between Slauson and Manchester....that is almost Inglewood.

I was wondering about the hills in your picture. I know there's no hills in Compton or Watts.

I went to school on Venice and Vermont and we used to have our home field at Centinela High School.

30 year later we still don't have a homefield.

I went to Loyola and I hear they are closing our arch enemy school Daniel Murphy because Cardinal Manning had to pay that huge child molestation settlement.

What a bummer for those guys.
