I run 104 every week with my chip. Usual ration is 5 gal of 104 to 6-8 gal of 93. You should know that 104 does not like uv or heat. If you track has it in above ground tanks, I would advise buying somewhere else. Don't set it in the sun at the track. It can cook and gum up your fuel system. Keep in dark can. Put in truck soon. Never use leaded gas.
