I did run a Datsun roadster in which I did not harden the valve seats when I rebuilt the engine.  Mistake.  One of the valves became non adjustable.  

But if you do harden your valve seats, then run supreme, no harm and easy peazy.

I was just reading about this stuff.  It's leaded, 110 octane and in my
corner of New England is selling for about $10/gal.  Is it Aviation gas that
has the road tax included?  At $100 a fill up, I'm not too inclined to use
it but it is tempting.  Any harm in using it or would the TR-6 be so happy
with, it would not want me to get anything else?
