FWIW,
I have run 87 to 93, leaded, un-leaded, ethanol and non-ethanol, from sea-level to 6,000ft and have not really seen any real difference in performance or function. Motor is close to 50k on the odometer, almost 20 on the rebuild due to a bad cam.
I really don't think there is much to worry about on a (reasonably) stock motor. Just my 2cents.
