- The BN1/BN2 have comparatively low compression to most 60's British cars, even in Le Mans kit trim. If a 4 cyl is running on all the time, it probably means that the carb mixture and/or timing is of

- Technically I aagree with what Mark said, but just wanted to add that legally using leaded avgas or racing gas on your street car is not kosher. Had a friend who was diong that vary thing in an Ameri

- AFAIK, the only legal restriction is that if you've purchased avgas--dunno the racing fuel--you didn't pay 'road' tax. In fact, some aircraft can run autogas and if you use it and keep your receipts

- Shoulda said leaded gas is impossible to get here in California (except for avgas). I can get 93- and 100-octane racing gas, but it's unleaded. Bob ** Bob Spidell San Jose, CA bspidell@comcast.net **

- Just because you can get away with it--fueling at many small airports is self-serve--doesn't mean it's legal (or ethical). You might be putting the supplier of the fuel at risk (esp. if an eco-Nazi s

- I can't imagine why anyone would want to go back to leaded fuel in their cars. Remember valve jobs? Lead can really gum stuff up. IMHO dave frogeye@porterscustom.com Porter Customs 2909 Arno NE Albuq
