Can someone please confirm for me if my 1973 Mustang 302 is suitable for unleaded petrol.

USA mags seem to indicate YES, but I'm still unsure.
Thanks.

No its not! BUT..you dont have a choice,so I suppose YES it is but put the prescribed amount of valve lube in and all will be good! Its got to do with compression, valve seat material bla bla bla..if your engine is standard use it but you mite try using the higher octane fuel, I prefere BP!
