I'd love for the plane I fly to use G100UL, which is unleaded aviation gas, but it's just not feasible. Unleaded aviation gas is truly wonderful – it extends engine lifespan and reduces the frequency of oil changes. Sadly, after talking to GAMI at Oshkosh, they said I can't run it due to the high compression ratio.

Also old pickup trucks rock. =)

What year did you talk to them? They now have approval for all TC'd SI engines: https://www.g100ul.com/faq.html#testing
