I say try 87 and see if you have any detonation and if so then go up a grade. But if it's designed for 87 then ya should be fine.

I've been running 87 the whole time, and it pings a bit under accelration. That's why I want to upgrade to 89 and see if that fixes it

jst put 10 gal in there and run it. it will be fine. the only time you should have a problem is running less of an octane constantly. i have ran 87 in my hemi under desperate circumstances and had no problems what so ever.
when i worked in colorado i would add a quart of methanol to every tank in my brand new 08 and my 02 envoy. i put some in my 05 hemi, i only had a scary experience with the 02 envoy the very first time i ran it but it sorted itself out and ran like a champ. i have no idea what methanol will raise the octane to

89 it is, I think it's worth the extra couple of bucks to save the engine from detonation and might also get a little bit better mileage and performance

Methanol has a very high octane level. It was one of the things I talked about on the tuning thread. Instead of running CAM2 with an aggressive timing use the methanol injection at a hugh savings. I use 93 octane with a SC91 canned tune with the power wire and still get a little kr at WOT. Methanol inj should take care of the kr and I might beable to use 89 octane iinstead of 93. We will see.

Sounds like that's what ya should do if ping at 87 ![Smile](https://www.semopar.com/images/smilies/smile.gif) also might want to check when was your last tune up? Maybe run some sea foam through the engine to clean things up... I run a bottle of Lucas every month just to keep injectors clean.
