In the U.S.A. , 94 octane is the highest octane @ the pump. There is a place near me, that i was told from a freind and not yet seen by me, that sells 100 unleaded. (we'll see)
Otherwise thats it. As far as useing unleaded gas in the older cars. You can get vavle seat inserts to replace the old valve seat for use with unleaded gas. They are a hardened material. MoPar has them I believe.
If the compresion is to high for 94 octane and a piston replacement is not in the wallet, MoPar sells shims to place under the cycl. head for about a 1 point reduction depending on head gasket used. (thickness)
There is a prodcut called 104 or 104+ that will add octane points to your fuel.
