Wheels -  **any number of Datsun/Nissan 14" after market mags around

Ignition - My distributor, while it works, is the weak link in the engine.

**Keep the distributor and fit an Ignitor magnetic ighnition trigger - doesn't
matter that the bush in the distributor is worn - no points!

Exhaust - Ansa or Monza tips make a bit more noise, but it is _good_ noise.

Carbs - presently stock SU's that work okay.  They are a pain though. I
don't enjoy tuning and maintaining them at all. Some time ago I saw a B with
a four barrel American carb on it that looked like a good fit. It looked and
sounded awesome and the owner said that it really made a difference in
performance! Since cost is a factor (I don't need a supercharger or even
Webers), since my engine is strong and will handle it and since I just want
bolt on stuff, I thought this might be a good way to go to have a custom
look  - and more power. Anybody got any information on this - or reasonable
alternatives?

** I have no doubt that many setups would add power over thrashed worn SUs.
Get yours rebuilt once, properly, and they will be good for as long as you own
the car. Anyone that says otherwise just doesn't understand or want to bother
with the SUs.
