Dr. F--thank you for the info. As usual it is appreciated.
Will I need to run premium gas or get by with regular gasoline?
You could try the mid grade and see if it pings. Be prepared to back off some ignition timing until it doesn't ping if you try it.

umm, wasn't that true of pretty much everything out of Detroit back then? that was the whole point of "blueprinting" engines.
