My daily-driver 1600 is satisfied with 87 octane unleaded regular.
Pre-smog distributor and corresponding advance (16 BTDC at 600 RPM,
vacuum line disconnected while making the adjustment) hasn't resulted in
any noticeable ping. No engine details; there was lots of work done by the
PO, but I don't have the paperwork.
I still have a few gallons of vintage 1979 leaded premium in the
Studebaker, if you're interested. You come and siphon it :-)
