After I re-did the 400,, it seems to spark knock every once in a while after it gets pretty hot,,, I am in the woods alot and wonder if Gasohol will help me out ,,,, I would think it would help on engine temps and power,,, but correct me if I am wrong...

the half and half mixture of High octane gasoline,, and Alcohol... It makes gasohol,, ... the mixture is supposed to make the engine run cooler since it has alcohol,, and is supposed to make the motor run better overall... Lots cleaner fuel also..

Gasahol around here is they cut regular pump gas with alky. It attracts water, and you will have to play with your jetting. Not to mention the worse fuel millage. Maybe you are running lean, that causes ping. You would probly be better off with race fuel or octane booster.
