Hello smart TCBers,

I've got a few questions.

On my '66 I need advice about what muffler to get.  The Bus will look very
stock but the engine is going to be a 1776 w/ dual carbs.  As I understand
it having a stock muffler will help to lessen the effect of having a more
powerful engine.  I don't want a super loud Bus and I don't want something
goofy looking hanging off the back.  Someone said there is one that looks
stock but will work well but he doesn't remember the name of who makes/sells
it.  Does anyone know which one I'm speaking of?  Would it be a good
choice?  Or is there something else any of you can recommend?

On my '71 I have non-resistored spark plugs.  My local VW shop says that
they are hard to come by.  I guess NGK still makes them but Bosch does not.
Is there good reason to stick with non-resistored over resistored spark
plugs?  Will non-resistored just get harder and harder to find?

Oh and I finally have named my new home.  I was watching Gone With the Wind
the other day and it came to me:  Tara Bulli.

Thanks,

Julie
