...the B's getting a visit from Santa in the form of the replacement of the existing Weber 32/36 DGV carburetor by the twin SU HIF4's that were originally on the car. Also replacement of the exhaust header and old performance exhaust by a stock exhaust manifold and stainless from the manifold back.
"Free hardtop" update: The B's got its winter hat on! I fabricated the hold-downs by bending up some quarter-inch threaded rod. Coupled with some nylon washers and wingnuts it makes for a secure top that's installable/removable without tools. Works better than I thought and less complicated than my original plan of welding up some brackets.
Pics coming soon. Will probably be putting the Weber on eBay.

Ah... exhaust work. Always fun. Be sure top have plenty of penetrating oil and if you can't have that then a torch is mighty handy
