I have had a couple pre-72 cars running on unleaded. Never done anything,
never had any problem.

I have to confess to not listening to you, but thats because I was
thinking the same think as you were. What we need is someone who is
very knolageable about car numbers (Hint), especialy Spifires, (Hint
Hint) to ammend his database to include cylinder head numbers. That way
we could work out wether there was somthing special about the cylinder
heads for unleaded countrys.
I would also know what people with pre 72 triumphs have done about this
lead crises or what ever the lead substiuet comanies are hyping it to
be. I have never been able to get a straight answer out of this.
Instead of what people have done, all I have got it Ohh but you Must use
so and so, cross your fingers, and put galic or somthing in the air
intake :-)
