Anybody put in their car? I have fuel "boiling" issues. Having air grabber can't run a spacer. Buddy uses AV gas and no issues.

What say ye?
 
i run av gas all the time the 451 loves it and you can ru more timing try 34 total all in at 3000 i put 5 to 7 gallon then top off with boat fuel so you come around 95 oct,
 
i get mine at a wawa the pump is marked as AV LL 100 the ll stands for low lead so 906 stock heads will live with out lead additive just to let everyone know.

Mine is a 446
 
I use 100LL in another vehicle and is great fuel. Just like the old days. Shelf life of at least 6+ years and no ethanol. I buy it at a local Heliport for about double what pump gas is and isn't bad. They won't fill the car but will fuel tanks. Racing fuel is more like four times the cost of pump gas.
 
When I was racing in the stone ages with my '68 Road Runner 383 four speed, I tried av gas but it was 140 octane. I used it one Sunday at the races and the car acted like it was towing a boat anchor. I drained it out when I got home and never tried it again. I will bet the 100LL will work if it is 100 octane. If I have any problems once I get my '70 Road Runner finished, I will try it.
