Hi Guys,
I was wondering if i should stick with the "oil system" or use a premix in the gas? Any opinions greatly appreciated!
Thank You!

The oil system supplies oil directly to the crank bearings.
You will ruin the crank bearings if you go to premix & eliminate the oil system.

Re: 72 GT550
There are 'oil flingers' that clear oil AWAY from the bearings when running. If you use premix these will actually stop oil getting to where you need it. Posi force was (and is) an excellent system - stick with it.
Think of how stupid the average person is, then realise that half of them are more stupid than that.
