87 octane is fine.
Check out the owners manaul.

My 91 NA runs terrible on 92/93 oct.

You always want to use the lowest octane you can without getting detonation. As long as your NA is healthy, you do not have anything to worry about.

Some people believe that the higher octane fuels are more refined and therefore are better for your engine. Frankly, I'd like to see real scientific proof of this.
