    I have an 84 Spider, enlarged intake and exhaust ports, headers, and a 
modified cam, and engine head milled to increase compression, and I cannot run 
anything less than 93 or 94 octane.  Here in New Jersey, octanes up to 94 are 
available.

    I have no idea why California, and states out west and Canada only go up 
to 91-92 octane, is it some sort of pollution control?  New Jersey seems 
pretty pollution-conscious, and i am afraid that if we here ever adopt 
California-type gasoline regs, I won't be able to drive my Spider

    Anyone out there know:   1.  What are the chances of this happening in 
NJ?,    and:                    2.  What do I do to my Spider if this happens?

    Thanks.
