It's about on par. Levels dropped all through the 1970s but in 1970 itself the average regular leaded had 2.42 grams of lead per US gallon, while premium had up to 2.81 grams. Today's 100LL Av-Gas had a maximum allowable of 2.13 grams per gallon (.56 grams/litre). If you can find the old 100...
Indeed, the deepest fossil found so far was 7,400 feet below the ocean floor in Norway, it came up while drilling for oil. But the deepest oil wells are much deeper than any fossil - over 40,000 feet down in the Russian Chayvo oil field run by Exxon Neftegas Ltd. for example.

The AMC 20 differential is actually quite robust, being a 8.875", bigger than a Dana 44, same with the pinion shaft. It's the axles that are the weak link, and they can be upgraded.
Once the Ar-234 was geared up for production, it freed the Me-262 to be switched to a fighter role (as it was originally intended) instead of the bomber role that Hitler had first demanded. We've seen lots of pictures of the Me-262 as a fighter with its pointed nose containing four 30mm...
