well what king of wheels do you want specifically?

Craigslist, ebay etc might be a place to check

get a hold of Airjockie, he might be selling some whells, he is the biggest wheel whore EVER!

Are you doing anything to the engine? If you are going to keep it mostly stock, consider finding yourself a CDM carb. It flows okay, works with 2 vacuum lines, and is easyer to set up.

If you are planing to build your engine, thogh, get yourself the aftermarket... or so I hear...
