I bought my '76 Vette 3 years ago at Bloomington Gold and have loved the car ever since. It won't win a lot of races, but I was always surprised as how much zip she does have for a '76. This weekend I found the reason. Somewhere in this car's life, someone installed 1965 Camelback (double hump) heads on it. That has answered a lot of questions for me, and left me with a couple more. Should I be concerned that the heads on this car are from the Leaded gas era, but ever since I've had it I've been using 87 Octain Regular Unleaded? I'm pretty sure the previous owner did also. I replaced the spark plugs two years ago with the ones that are supposed to be on a '76. Should I be using something else? Again, no problems of any kind in three years. I want to keep that streak going. Any suggestions?
