if I want it to be more exciting, I'll fit 145s.

You may laugh. My 1340 with 286 cam engine on 145s was great fun. If I drove fast, I could feel it sliding on most bends, the harder you pushed it, the more it slid. None of this nasty 165 snappy business, just a breakaway like writing with chalk on a blackboard.

The key problem was it used rather a lot of them!
