87 Octane in a SS

[kevinw]

i have a v6, but if you look at the manual, you can put 87 in a SS too. if you are going to run it hard, track it, thats different. but for normal non spirited driving, you could probably get by with 87 . is it recommended, no, but, you probably wont total the engine if you did use 87

yeah it shouldn't do any damage, you'd just be throwing away performance by making it pull timing to prevent spark knock. The way I look at it is if a person can afford SS, they can afford to put the recommended gas in it.

Wouldn't that be like having a trophy wife and not 'doing' her?
