I suppose this has been covered to death here, but is there any point to using a lead substitute in a 235 with an unknown history? From what I've been reading online even if one of these old engines doesn't have harden exhaust valve seats there really isn't a need if they aren't ever going to be used hard again. Is that the general consensus here?
