yeah, I know about that stuff, prob here is to enter the airport, there is a key pad to use the pumps and you have to enter a plane number or hanger number, I had a friend who just looked around and used one of a plane sitting..lol....I will be using o2's and a wideband so not sure if I wanna trash them out with any lead content in the fuel.

did a turbo install for a guy and got it as payment, still got one or two more things to do for the guy as soon as he brings the car back, but all in all was a good deal..

I've always had plans for a s/c on the 89 just didn't know when it'd happen

Back when I did fuel system upgrades, that is what they cost. At buyfordracing.com, 200 included the shipping. But, they have went up since then.

There is a higher lead content in race fuel than in this fuel. Ive used it for bout 12 yrs never had an o2 issue ever. Here the pumps are the same there isnt an audit on plane tail numbers on the pumps. I go about 3 times a month!
