ok so to start i had a valve drop and lodge itself into 1 of my Ross pistons, it put a hole in the piston but did not go all the way through, i was wondering if i could just have it tig welded and be fine, but in the likely event i have to get new pistons, i was told the block was .020 over but...

I finally ran my car at the drag strip and it was a good run of 12.5 seconds, i noticed i was getting alittle bit of knock throut the run but didnt feel it break up at all. on a 91 tune shouldnt 110 octane kill off all knock? if not can some one point me in the right direction of how to change...
Ok well i did a 1st thru 3rd pull up to about 95mph, for some odd reason im getting hella knock. my car was tuned for 30 psi of boost on 91 octane so i can see why im getting some knock. But on this pull i mixed it up alittle and added 7 gallons of 100 octane unleaded and the rest 91, wouldnt...
