Hi all,
I am new here and just bought a 65 mustang conv. What type of gas do you recomend for a V8?

Looking forward to learn for all of you.

Classicman, if the cylinder heads on your 289 2V motor still the original and it doesn't have hardened valve seats installed then I recommend using leaded gas if driven daily. But it is hard to find leaded fuel and most people use unleaded fuel and add lead additive. If hardened valve seats were installed then use unleaded gas.
