Fuel type

Hello, I got my car running and I have a question about what type of fuel to use and since is an old car should I use some kind of additive

Avoid gas with ethanol in it!!! https://www.forcbodiesonly.com/mopa...ting-write-up-about-ethanol-in-our-gas.53159/ This website lists places where you can get it near you: https://www.pure-gas.org/index.jsp?stateprov=TX . This is one of them:
Killeen SUNOCO 93 105 110 Garvin's Machine Shop 254-526-9777 2859 E Stagecoach Rd

It depends on which engine you have and what has been done to it.

Here we have Ezero with no ethanol but it is only 89 octane. I can’t run on that octane level so I use VP 110, lots of octane and lead like God intended.

I run 92 octane pump gas with 10% ethanol (I have no other choice). No problems with it.

Thank you all for the reply, I have a 383 magnum original and I know that lead was used in the 60'.

I use 93 octane 10% ethanol gas. No troubles. I do have hardened valve seats. I’ve also run tens of thousands of miles without hardened valve seats without trouble too. Nothing in the car is modern.
