What Fuel Octane on your 350 TBI

I currently run E10 89 octane mid grade in my daily, '97 Chevy CCLB with a 5.7 Vortec. My '90 R2500 Burb had a 350 TBI in it, and that truck would run on just about anyone's gas. Usually ran 87 from Shell in it.

A 350 TBI should be able to run regular as in 87 octane E10 would be just fine.

I run 87 Now was thinking to try 85 25 cents cheaper per gal my burb is inhaling the fuel looking to put the original air cleaner assy back on, if i can find the parts The original owner tossed all of it away, Just running a edelbrock filter

They are out there. My PO did the same thing, I was able to buy a factory air cleaner housing (tall filter version), with tube to cowling from another member on this forum. I feel that having the thermac, and cowl air system working properly helps with gas mileage some.
