Ward,
I am talking about my little 1965 Comet with the 289 2 barrel carburetor. I had to sell my Cobra several years ago. The 69 will barely run on this pump gas and I can't put any load on it at all. I did have the compression lowered from 12:1 to 10:5, but those iron heads just don't dissipate the heat well. When I ordered it, the manual said to use nothing less than 105 leaded octane which was what we could get at the Chevron White Pumps back then. Now I run leaded racing gas in it for the few miles a year it is driven. It just turned over 41,280 miles the last time I had it out.
