    You can run ethanol blend gas in it if the fuel pump is newer and the carb has had a rebuild kit in maybe the last 20 years. The newer fuel system parts are designed for the ethanol blend.

    53-55 are the coveted ones. Virtually the same body style. 54 had a different grille. Some will say 53-56, but in 56 the cab became a little more square. I have a 54 that I'm slowly working on. Was my daily driver about 30 years ago. Long story short, sold it and bought it back 15 or 20 years later. Good luck and happy wrenching.

  • @aviationaerospacechannel5987

    The Sauber Merc C9 never been the fastest 24h LeMans car ! It depends what do you mean by the fastest by the way ? The fastest car in top speed was a Peugeot WM P88 which reach a 407 km/h top speed, at the 1988 24h race of LeMans. If you're talking of the fastest lap ever recorded, it's Kamui Kobayashi who's holding the fastest lap record on LeMans, with a Toyota TS050. With the highest average lap speed as well. Bonus : Peugeot build a road version of its fastest LeMans prototype, which was named Peugeot Oxia. They only produced 2 of them, and didn't pursue the idea to sale it to a limit production, available for the richest clients. It's really pity, since this road legal version, was way ahead of its time, and was before many prestigious sport cars, the fastest car in the world, with its detuned racing TTV6 engine. Add to it, 4WD and 4WS, Solar powered Aircon, and many other technologies, which was making this Peugeot a space ship in 1986. It's funny since Oxia is the name of a place based on planet Mars.

      Highest top speed to finish the race in this context. Around 1:40 into the video, I talk about the rivalry between Peugeot and Sauber/Merc and the WM 88.
