Its all about CR & available octane. At 10.5:1, you must have twin-ignition to run on pump gas, however its unnecessary at the lower CR. Now,......there are other benefits to twin-ignition (especially using carbs or MFI) such as better overall drivability, improved throttle response and cleaner running. Engines so equipped are better behaved, all things being equal.

What is the general consensus on LSD brands for the early transmissions?
Guard, hands down! Nothing is as durable or as adjustable.
