I recently purchased my 1982 FB and was wondering what mods i should complete first. I want to build this car correctly from the beginning so I was wondering what problems I need to address right now.  What oil should I run? What should I delete? Mainly I am still quite fuzzy when it comes to oiling and lubricating the engine. Any ideas would be greatly appreciated, thank you!

Well, it depends how stock and untouched car is

Firts you should get scrap that airpump and exhaust. There is lots of after market part like Racing Beats. Or DIY, but remember that it will be loud ;)

Second, scrap that old carburator. It needs rebuild anyways so better to get new one (or used). Again, Racing Beat

Then you should consider pre mixin gasoline with oil. Then you can (if you want) delete OMP system

You should check Racing Beats site, it has lots of good tips :)
Power is nothing without control. Weight is enemy of performance, handling and braking.
