Both products have a completely different purpose and use. And can be used together as well based on application.

Ok I have a question for you guys. My TCM800 will run just fine on 91, so they say. I run 100LL. Have been for some time now. For me its cheap insurance. Since its LL, is there any benefit in running Lucas? if so, why? I think I'm around 280-300hrs on this thing and its still running like a top. I'm honestly afraid to change anything now.

I haven't seen any benefit to treating the fuel when using av or race gas.

See, you're assuming I want to save that little 509 block. What if I really want a 540 block and a 4L blower?? If I save the 509 I'd probably go back with it. But if she lets loose, what better reason to buy a 540? I don't think like a normal person lol
