No they are open in phoenix. I finally found some from a company that's selling out then stopping. 85 before shipping for the six pack of 32 Oz cans good deal. Only took 3-4 hours of calling lol.

So where did you find it? PM me if you dont want to post.

**02pnygt** · 03-20-2009, 09:34 PM

I was on torco's website and it will let you order from there, but it is $119.99 for the 6 pack. I ordered this stuff last year and know i paid right around $90 for the 6 pack, but can't find my receipt or remember where i ordered it from. Mind letting us know where you found it for $85?

I alway buy in 5 gallon cans. I hope it's still going to be available in some fashion.

**RUTHLESS** · 03-20-2009, 09:45 PM

RWTD has it listed for $85

Yep, tried that. When you go to order it's says it's out of stock. I did find it here http://need4speedpower.com/torco.html for $95 for the 6 pack. Ad says in stock as of 12/02/08. It did let me order it so we will see if they email back that it is out of stock or not. I also found that it is listed on amazon.com but says they are out of stock and don't if or when it will be back in stock.

I got for it at 85 at insingerfuels.com 99.99 after shipping it's a company in Dushore PA. I always spend a lot of time shopping put on the average I get pretty good deals or I couldn't afford this hobby.

The lady says when they're gone they're done. I have already told 1 other person. I feel like a junky who just gave up the location of their stash lol. I told everyone on other forums I was keeping it secert lol.

It is, just under a new name...

**phillysrt4** · 03-30-2009, 06:09 PM

seriously though its a shame its gone. Everyone I know who's used it sings its praises. I just found mixing xylene with gas easier when I wanted to run my 100 octane tune and 100 octane wasn't available

That's not same thing.

Torco is a race fuel concentrate not just an octane booster.

Toluene can be used as an octane booster in gasoline fuels used in internal combustion engines. Toluene at 86% by volume fueled all the turbo Formula 1 teams in the 1980s, first pioneered by the Honda team. The remaining 14% was a "filler" of n-heptane, to reduce the octane to meet Formula 1 fuel restrictions. Toluene at 100% can be used as a fuel for both two-stroke and four-stroke engines; however, due to the density of the fuel and other factors, the fuel does not vaporize easily unless preheated to 70 degrees celsius (Honda accomplished this in their Formula 1 cars by routing the fuel lines through the muffler system to heat the fuel). Toluene also poses similar problems as alcohol fuels, as it eats through standard rubber fuel lines and has no lubricating properties as standard gasoline does, which can break down fuel pumps and cause upper cylinder bore wear.

Yes I have heard of them and it seems like a nice kit for the money.

I love E85, wish it was more popular here.
Check this out:

112 octane E85.
Hot Rod just did a blown LS1 that made 50 more hp/tq on E85 over 112 race gas and it runs cooler.
