Any drivability mods to make it more compatible with today's gas and oil?


That got me thinking. This motor was initially produced in the pre unleaded fuel days. I know that some use fuel additives for their original older motors to make up for deficiencies in the modern unleaded fuel. After the build is complete will you need fuel additives?


The tetraethyl lead cushioned the impact of the valves on the valve seats and that's about it.

Some guys run the additives, I probably won't because I don't plan on putting 100k miles on the car.

You can have hardened valve seats put in the heads but I won't until the stock seats are worn out.
