Depending on where you are in MD, you could always take a ride over to Cecil County Dragway and get some leaded race fuel. More octane than your car could dream of (or need), but be prepared to open your wallet wide.
There’s allot of snake oil in the form of octane boosters on the autoparts store shelves. A buddy ran an additive made by (I think) VP Fuels in his race Duster, and it did make a noticeable performance difference. But the cam/compression/RPM range of that motor was very different from what’s expected out of an Imperial. For your car it sounds like you might want to adjust your total timing and bring it down a little bit.
