Sorry, I have to laugh. Back in the day, in the 1970s, Kirkland was the same as Scotch Buy and white label beer. it was off branding like they do today with grocery store brands, only worse quality. So you have a mid shelf car and putting sub-bottom shelf fuel in it.

STOP!

Buy an EcoBoost, it is zippy and you don't have to buy shit gas.

You do realize kirkland(costco) is a top tier fuel, and one of the highest rated gases, right?

Took a drive Sunday down some nice back roads to a fishing village on the Bay of Fundy.
I have 15mm H&R spacers on my PP wheels and SVE lowering 1” springs for the look I wanted. I had to replace the studs to get this spacing but didn’t want the “poke” of 25mm spacers.

This got my attention... were you able to order that knob to fit your reverse lockout? The Raceseng website always shows their shift knobs with their reverse adapter, and add it to the cost. I have a Barton adapter and prefer its looks. I’ve looked high and low for a weighted knob to fit a stock or stock-ish adapter.
Absolutely. When on their site, you just have to select a “big bore” knob. The big bore knobs are machined for a pull-up style reverse lockout. The only parts I ordered were the big bore slammer knob, and the necessary 0811010 adapter. Fits like a glove. The slammer is 635 grams!

Attached is a screen shot of my exact order. Obviously you don’t have to go with a custom knob, but I didn’t want any engraving and that’s the only way to get that option

Oh, I'm sorry. I didn't realize Costco had it's own refinery. I'll try to remember that.

The brand on the pump doesn't reflect what refinery it came from and the refinery can change from day to day. Gasoline is piped to hubs and is the same regardless of the refinery. At the hubs, the various "brands" mix in their additives and truck it to stations.

Just out of curiosity, what's your opinion on Sunoco gas?
The point is, dedicated vs national supply fuel.

Sunoco is dedicated fuel, like Chevron, Shell, etc. Is the Costco dedicated fuel? Meaning it was specially cooked for them or does it come from national supply fuel that most refineries dump into?

So you believe that Sunoco fuel is special, even though they don't have any refining operations of their own? It was already detailed above that it doesn't work that way. Bottom line is, I really don't care where you get your gas. You do you.
Sunoco is branding, I would think the racing fuel is 'dedicated' or bespoke if you will.
