[DeTomaso] Pantera Aviad pan

[Dave Londry]

Hi Richard
I'm not surprised at the timing numbers you needed going all aluminum.
I was surprised that 11.4 runs calmly on 91 octane, but thinking it over 
I guess it's all the same thing.
My all-iron motor at 10.8 runs calmly on 94, but on 91 I have to 
light-foot it or take about 5 degrees out.
Dave
