        Need some recommendations on parts for my spit.  I am going to do a
carb/header/exhaust upgrade and was thinking about using the Weber DGV carb,
The car currently has water choke, and am not sure if I want to keep it.
what results has anyone on the list had with the water chokes? should I go
ahead and switch to manual? Next up is the Exhaust system and Headers, I'd
like it to have a throaty sound but not irritatingly loud, from what I
gather, the Monza setup is somewhat noisy, and has problems with backfiring
and/or popping, and leaving lots of soot on the rear bumper?. Given that,
What is a good setup to go with the weber?
        Lastly but not least, I'm also going to replace the convertible top, 
What
is the current List-wisdom on tops? what brands fit better/last longer? so
far I have read about Robbins, Amco and Crown tops, I have a VB catalogue
that has the Robbins and Crown tops in it, but not the Amco, where can I
purchase a Amco top at?

Any advice would be greatly apprecitated.
