u asked what kinda fuel you should be using, and i answered your question, what kinda fuel does your lhs carry
if you just want top fuel 33% becuase it looks cool then your buying fuel for the wrong reasons, but its all your lhs carries then thats cool, but iv personaly never seen someone take top fuel over fuels such as trinity or o'donell

HI
It is not a good idea to break-in the engine with 33% fuel. You might just break the engine before you break-in the engine. Get a quart of 10, 15, or 20% fuel to break the engine in. Then if you still want to use 33% fuel go ahead. If you are going to use 33% fuel tho you will have to add one or two shims between the head, and the block of the engine too handel that kind of fuel.
