Hal,
If you've got the head off the engine then might as well
get it converted to unleaded valve seats and valves. We haven't seen
leaded gas here in CA for eons. I've found no problem with the
unleaded. I drove a Jensen-Healey 100k miles on unleaded with no bad
results. But if you're going to open the engine up, why not??
Gas will only get less-friendly to our old engines in the future.
Colorado huh? I just might think about that
trip!
Try www.davebean.com
for headers.

Well I am finally going to open up the motor and do some work hopefully a little more power. My question to you all is... Does anyone have any aversions to changing from leaded to unleaded.Also I am looking to do some exhaust work does anyone know of a place that makes chrome headers for the ford cortina 4 cyl. I never thought in my wildest dreams I would ever use those two words in one sentance { ford..chromeheader} Also I used to have a "cutoff valve" on my exhaust system on an old Lotus Elan. I figured I could pick up 7-10 horse. Any opinions? Also here in Colo. we have the British car conclave in September. I am the only Marcos out of 535 cars last year, so I am calling on all the Marcos owners to mass enforce this year!
please.....
Hal
