   I've talked to several machine shops about unleaded
use. I have been told as the rpm approaches 3000 or if
the engine is under heavy load there will be seat
problems. In my opinion the reason a lot of the
British car owners in American have not experienced  
major problems is because few of our cars are used in
an every day high rpm commute. We, in many cases treat
these cars as adult toys and use them in thay way.
