Torco question...
I run 91 octane here in CA. I've noticed since adding Torco to get a 93 octane mix, when starting cold, there's no more "knock" noise coming from the engine. Would this make any sense, or is it in my head?

Probably in your head.

I use Torco all the time for our stupid 91octane here. And it works!! Of course I have a tune for when running Torco. I mix it up to 104octane on weekends upload the tune and tell the ole lady to hold on to her panties!!! So yes it does work!

He's not questioning if it works. He's questioning the engine running quieter at idle.

What you may hear cold is piston slap. It would have no effect with Torco

Maybe just around Odessa, I live in south Texas and we have 93, and I've taken the ZL all around Texas and not have had a problem with finding 93
