Default RE: does it REALLY need 89 octane?

Due to the combustion chamber in the 6.1 and the 5.7 they are ignited with 2 spark plugs per cylinder to allow flame travel on both sides of the raised piston. This is a big help in even flame travel. You get a complete burn and with it better gas mileage.
