110 Octane Leaded? (No Cats)

I've heard that you can't do leaded in a motor intended to do unleaded. Period. I'm sure if you dumped money into the VQ you could make it run leaded...

I've heard that you can't do leaded in a motor intended to do unleaded. Period. I'm sure if you dumped money into the VQ you could make it run leaded... although I would push the car out of the garage and maybe another 100 feet away before starting.

Instead of doing leaded fuel, why not go with unleaded, oxygenated fuel.

Also, is that leaded fuel purple in color?
