Fullerton Airport, LL100, use creditcard, pumps unmanned after 10pm, don't get caught. This is Leaded fuel (Remove cat if you have one). I use gas containers when I go there, I don't pump it directly into a car.

Unocal 76 station, Dave Graham Inc., 2690 San Miguel Dr., Newport Beach, 92660. 949-644-7151.
It's not close to Don's shop, but I think it's closest place currently offering 100 octane unleaded at the pump.
Due to recent gasoline prices, they just raised their price fifty cents to $4.99 per gallon a couple of months ago.
Do a mapquest if interested.

I use the 76 Station by the Fullerton Airport. It is on Commonwealth between Brookhurst and Magnolia. I believe the cross street is Gilbert???? The price is $4.99 a gallon for 100 octane unleaded at the pump. Just got some the other day for my dyno run. Allen

Thanks, everybody! I just paid $5.39 a gallon at a place in Mission Viejo. Anything less than that is great.

Amazing how almost all of them are charging 4.99/gal. Try to find normal gas prices that consistent over such a large area.

That station is at Hamner and 4th street in Norco.

The guys who were doing the high octane for Unocal formed their own company called Rockett Fuel. Their website doesnt list any stations in CA so I dont know who is providing the race gas here. Perhaps Sunoco or VP?

Right. I talked to a guy at Unocal and he said they are using Rockett gasoline. Allen

If you guys are any where near Dyno Don, you might want to check out the station that Don recommends. It's a Texaco station (IIRC) and it carries 103 and 110 octane gas from VP. BTW, the 110 is cheaper than the 103 (but it is still over $5.00 and the 103 is over $6.00 a gallon)!
