you do not need the lead additive,, unless you intend to run the car hard.
Like high revs, long and hard. Under normal driving conditions you will not
need the additive. If by chance someday you have the head off for whatever
reason, have the machine shop put in harden seats and valves. I wouldn't
bother otherwise unless you have time and money on your hands and need
something to do.

Yes you need the lead substitute addative if the car has the original valves.
Newer valves are different with a hardened edge.

Major question that I did not see an anwer to earlier in the year. Whatb
about fuel for my 64 MG Is the highest octane unleaded okay to use ?
When I was in an automotive store they had this additive for cars that
require leaded fuel. Is this a gimic or is it legitimate?
