Don't do it if your vehicle has one of those infernal "black boxes" under the hood monitoring and controlling the combustion process. The lead in the gasoline will foul several of the many sensors used by the computer, and you'll end up replacing them to get your vehicle running smoothly and/or predictably again! I don't think the particular vehicle in question (1977 model) is recent enough to fall into this category. (My 1976 Camaro doesn't have one of these computers). --Bob Tracy ...!ctvax!uokvax!rctracy
