Question about detonation??

The only time you're gonna experience detonation is under at least a decent amount of load.....so taking it easy and driving the car around shouldn't hurt it at all, I would say....as long as the timing's right. That "tow it, don't drive it" thing sounds a bit extreme. But detonation can lead to some catastrophic failure of your new engine, so....getting it dialed in on a dyno isn't a bad thing. Just my .02.....
