Are there any benefit to running octane gas when towing? I had heard when towing use high octane gas.

Those days are gone.
I had a 70 Plymouth (liked high octane) that I decided to try a little mid grade in, just to see. Dear lord, you would think I put a bucket of screws down the carb's throat, for the fit it was throwing. Racing gas raised the octane enough not to kill the car.
You will know if you are running too little octane.
No, you probably won't know if the octane is too low. Horsepower, fuel mileage and engine life will suffer but you won't know without careful checking.
