Dan,
I would not worry about the leaded fuel issue.  just burn a gasoline that
has enough octane to keep the car from pinging.  If you put 60 or 70
thousand miles a year on thecar it might be an issue but with the moderate
amount of driving most Triumphs get, you probably won't see any valve
recession for the forseeable future.

And in the evet you have an isue, then you can upgrade to hardened valves
and seats.

Cheers,
Joe
