    If you went that route, yes you are correct, several bottles would need to be added (depending on brand) or "make your own" by buying race fuel like this
    apihqneqa__65969.1640799778.png and then just add a portion to your regular to make "premium" I don't remember the ratio but it's what I used to do with my racing mowers.

    It's all that happens at a gas station.. there's no such thing as mid grade. They only deliver regular and premium and then pull from both tanks to sell you mid grade

    Stock bumps will properly limit that, I ran the same setup early on. You could get duro bumps, youll hit them sooner but they're progressive so they get harder the more you get into em

    The head gasket talk has reminded me. What are the chances that my truck running a mix of Dexcool/Toyota SLL Pink for 5000 miles did damage to my 04 head gasket?

    When I bought the truck in high school the water pump was slow leaking. So my father chose to fill the empty reservoir with GM Dexcool. I had the timing belt and water pump done after the next oil change and had the truck flushed with Prestone green. Then converted back to Toyota SLL Pink ~10,000 miles after that.

    I know 01-04 head gaskets are supposed to be improved. So I assume it’s just poor luck.

    It's low, 01-04 HGs are MLS. They're pretty damn good but corrosion will kill them. 5000mi won't make or break anything if it was less than 2 years
