Re: Driveability of high compression cars
Most AV gas sold is 100ll (low lead) and will work in a high compression engine. I have not bought any in a while, but it is probably around $3.00 - $3.50 a gal. A relative bargain, considering racing fuel is over $6.00 per gallon. It is formulated to run at 10,000 feet of elevation, not sea level. So if you're going to keep usinf it, especially without mixing, you may want to re-jet the carb.

Re: Driveability of high compression cars
Also, I've found that AV gas seems to have a much longer shelf life. It must have some "Stabil" like additives to keep those Piper Cubs from falling out of the sky after sitting for six months.
