Default Re: Another Gas Tank and Headlight question

My car is 6v and I would say driving at night is fine. Not great but not terrible. Thats with 25w halogens and old incorrectly shaped reflectors. With correctly tooled reflectors from brattons and a proper adjustment I bet the lights will be more than sufficient on 6v.

Low compression combined with relatively soft valve springs means regular unleaded is fine. Lots of rebuilt engines also have hardened valve seats.
