[Spits] GT-6 MK3 in Georgia

[Bill Gingerich]

Dan,

As I recall, they were designed for leaded fuel.  What my son did with his
'72 GT6 was to use a lead substitute that he bought at his local auto parts
store.  When you're ready to pull the head, you can have the valve seats and
valves redone for unleaded fuel.  I did that with my '74 Spitfire.  Not a
problem.

I have an opportunity (?) to purchase a 1972 GT-6 MK3 cheap.  It's been a
while, but do they require leaded gas to run?  If so, how do the listers
cope with that requirement?
