We just drove my ERA from Indianapolis to Monterey and back - 6,000 miles. The car now has 10,200 on it.

Given the choice, I will always buy alcohol free. The only short term issue I see is dieseling on some shut downs.

I have found that using a half can of Lucas Octane booster with 90-93 octane and the car runs and shuts off perfectly. Yea, the carb my not last 100,000 miles, but what can you do.

427 side oiler, built by Lykin's Motorsports.
