quench vs no quench?

I run a 366sbm@ 10.7c/r with al heads, KB-107s and .035 quench,mostly street. No biggy. I run it on E-87.It doesnt seem to care if the power timing is 32 to 36.I cant tell the difference. For 125000 miles. Some of them at WOT. well, maybe lots of them.Well, not whole miles;Its not a Nascar engine. But you know; Slamming through the gears, til you run out of revs.
-For a while I dropped the quench to about .016, which upped the c/r to 11.1. Man, that thing barked at .016.
-Either way, it never knocked with full timing and that E-10 .
-Just saying.
