Having not driven my car since leaded hi test gas was available I would like to get recommendations as to the appropriate gasoline to run in my car when I finally finish it. I hve the no lead valves installed.

Thank you.

Any grade that doesn't cause excessive ping or engine "run on" should be just fine.

Tried to get away without premium, but had serious run on problems. Now it's only premium.

Premium with lead additive and octane booster is what works in my 62 BT7. Filled it with regular once and had major problems.
