Thanks for posting the h4 article Dave! I probably have the chinese junk in my rod's headlights also, because they surely lacking. The best lights I have in any of my cars are the GE halogen sealed beams in the 57 Olds. They can throw some serious light down the road. But the 34 have the Lucas style lamps with an H4 bulb.

My Honda Gold Wings have H4 headlights which are certainly very good, but when I used to ride at night on loney hiways, I also had two Hella H2 100w driving lamps mounted on the fairling for real light. I used to run all three in attempt to "turn night into day". They were also handy for scaring the hell out of unresponsive and rude 4 wheelers. I also ran two Hella 55w fog lites attached to the crash bars. With all five lights running, it probalby looked like a small F14 rolling down the hiway.
