I was reading on here that the old 6 cylinder gassers are supposed to use at least 93 octain. I was wondering a few things, were the octain ratings of yesteryear the same as they are now?

I havent noticed anything bad yet. here in mn we have been running e10 for many many years and i dont recall ever hearing of any fuel related problumes. what do you guys think.
