Shouldn't hurt anything except shorten the life of your spark plugs.  The main reason lead was eliminated from gasoline was the advent of catalytic converters.  Lead kills them quickly.  So, as long as you don't have catalytic converters, you should be OK.

Chip has always run Cam 2 in my Lowrider.
He changed the plugs with 4k on the new engine.
The plugs were perfect!


And that Cam 2 smells so good!

Why would you want to run leaded gas, the deposits may hang around, If I wanted more octane I would find a 100 octane no-lead pump like Sunoco.

Yeah, 'er 'uh, jimp,
 I use 114 Octane (Blue Fuel) whenever possible.  A must for High Compression Engines, such as mine. [smiley=biggthumpup.gif]  Mine will ping w/93, or 100 Octane.  I was told by my Engine Builder the Blue Fuel will also reduce Valve Seat Recession (VSR).  No deposits found here.  Like SE06, I love that smell! [smiley=huepfenlol2.gif]  Ride WFO!  Later--HUBBARD

Hub...
My dyna at 10.8:1 wont ping on 94 sunoco...yours will on 100 octane ..then you got a problem that needs attention... the curve is too agressive or it's too lean. especially with the duration and overlap in those 260 cams of yours bleedin off all that cylinder pressure...unless we're rollin on the throttle a little too hard in too low a gear.

 I stand corrected.  Just purchased some Blue Fuel.  It is TORCO 112 Octane @ $4.43 per gallon.  Ride Hard!  Later--HUBBARD
