RE: Unleaded??

I think your getting leaded.  As in regular leaded.  The same stuff sold 
back in the 70's.  In a 64 I would use leaded and if you had to use 
unleaded then use an additive.  I am using info from 'Trends and DB+HVW' 
and they both say that any 1600 should be unleaded OK.  They mention 
that the older engines would need an upgrade in head to use unleaded.

Yes? No? Maybe?
