If someone has Motortend on Demand subscription, suggest watching most recent episode of Engine Masters.
They've ran LS3 on engine dyno with 87, 91 pump gas, 110 and 113 race gas and E85 - adjusting timing and AFR for max power/torque.
Results can obviously vary for different engines with different compression rations (and boost), but in this case, every single fuel except E85 resulted in basically same power and torque. Makes these discussions where people swear on running 93 - let's say - interesting. (this applies to Coyote way more than to Ecoboost obviously).
