That's indeed quite a bit, huh? If I take a 1/3lb lead ball to a C-206
flyer and tell him that's how much lead there is in his full tanks, I
bet he'll be surprised.

A couple of points:

1) My copy of ASTM spec D910 page 0539 states that the allowable TEL
content of 100LL avgas is 2 milliliters per gallon NOT 2 grams per
gallon. This means there will be over 1/3rd pound of lead in an 80
gallon tank of 100LL, plus about 1/5th pound of ethlylene dibromide
scavenging agent.
