Mind you that this is just hear-say and information I read in military vehicles by thread; I read that the flat-head was manufactured to run off of 60 octain gasoline, and that not using unleaded was not detrimental to the engine (this was for an M-37, flat-head, but i am sure the same would apply to a 230 in a Power Wagon). I will not vouch for the accuracy of this information, but I will say that many individuals in that particular forum agreed with this statement.
