My plans are not real clear at this point.

Just looking for a fun track car.
Going to four lug allows me to use the two sets of wheels I already have.
They are 13x8 in the front and 13x10 in the rear.

I have access to a lifetime supply of Goodyear radials.

I would love to have a 120hp TI or TIV motor with dual Webers.

I won't do anything that can't easily be reversed.
I may want to run it in a FV race. Car has a logbook already. It's a Zink.

The first drive will be in spec trim with brand new ( but old and cracked ) Hoosiers.

Seems rear drums are readily available, it's the fronts that are not.

Thoughts on adapters?

Sticking a Hewland (or Webster) 5-spd dogbox kit in that transaxle would transform the way it shifts. New would be costly, but there'd have to be many used ones around.
