The problem is that tetraethyl lead was an anti knock additive. Once the lead was gone, Detroit had to manufacture engines with lower compression ratios, thus cutting down the engine knock along with HP and torque. This was noticed in the big and sporty cars like Caddys, Lincolns, Corvetts etc. As far as complaints went, there were more complaints over those ugly 5mph bumpers more than anything else.
