question on which grade octance gas is optimum for the lt1

ok, i know we are supposed to use premium and all (and i do) but i was just wondering which amount of octane it likes
i was reading about the ls2 and they said it seems to run best on 95 (which isn't surprising considering it's high c/r)
does anybody know what the lt1 runs best on?
we have 93 and even one place has 94 here
i know that if you have too much octane, it just makes the gas harder to burn which wouldn't help
this is just sort of a curiousity type question but...i felt i would ask anyway

Why should I repeat something else someone said... I would sound like a parrot...
