Never run higher octane gas in your engine unless you have a higher compression ratio, which from what I understand is the standard 8:1.

Never run higher than 87 octane unless you have a higher compression motor.

I think he meant unleaded. To the best of my knowledge, they don't even sell the lead additive anymore.
