If the engine is tuned for 87 there is no real benefit. Will it hurt to run 91-93, no. Just extra $ which is .50-.60 a gallon here in Michigan.
Yeah, it depends on what the engine was tuned for. I will say my 2007 Impala SS with the LS4 also called for premium. I imagine most modern V8 engines are designed to run on premium primarily.
