Opinions welcome
“As original as possible” would include 14x5.5” steel wheels and sport hubcaps. If you’re using Cragars, you are deviating from your “as original as possible” goal, so why not just upgrade to the dual master? Might as well stay with the puny 36amp alternator, and the old style mechanical voltage regulator and points ignition too. Wouldn’t want an upgrade there either.
You see, there are many acceptable upgrades you can perform on these cars and still stay original, and nobody will care, most won’t even know it’s been changed. I would, but I would also nod my head in agreement that changes for safety and better performance are totally acceptable and welcomed in certain areas.
