Exactly. The V6 manual states 87 OR better (meaning you can run 87 in it and it will be fine). The SS manual states 91 or higher (meaning running anything lower than 91 will pull timing and reduce power). OP, again, you have a V6, put 87 in it and enjoy your car. For the "few more ponies" you may unlock using a higher octane, try it out and have your butt dyno calibrated correctly.
