I still maintain Hellas are the way to go.  I had Rallye 2000's on my 1600,
2 x pencils and 2 x spreads and they were fantastic lights.  Xenon Liteforce
are also exceptional and only use minimal wattage however they are very
expensive.

Here's a tip - get 4 old witches hats, buy 4 pod lights, cut the hats to
length so they match the diameter of the pod lights.  Cut the hats so they
can mount on the front of your bonnet without impeding vision I.E. run a
horizontal string line from the base of your windscreen forwards and fix the
hats so they comply with CAMS and DOT rules (must be same height as string
or maybe permitted a little higher).  Frame and glue the hats together as
though they are light pods, and make a fiberglass mould of them.  Then
simply make a pod set using your mould, and fit stainless mounting rings for
the lights.  

I have done this and it works a treat, just be sure to make them with a
mounting plate and use zus fasteners as the one I did for a mate was glassed
to the bonnet at his request.  Had to change bonnets for day events...

I would still recommend Cibie Super Oscars.  2 spread beams, and add 2
pencil beams if you can afford 2 more.

Check if it is now legal to have more than 6 forward facing headlamps in
Vic?  On cars with four original forward facing headlights, (1600's and
180B's) we used to have to mount the Cibies in front of the original high
beams, to get around a rule that said you could only have 6 forward facing
head lanps (and another that said the lights had to be mounted more the 30cm
either side of the cars centreline).

Use 100w H1 globes with 4mm wiring, driven by quality relays mounted RHS on
the rear of the radiator support panel, and switched by the original high
beam circuit removed from the RH High beam head light.

Lightforce would be my next choice.  Slightly cheaper, plastic backs but
still good, bigger, rugged lights.

Talk to John at Rallyequip, Bayswater Rd Croydon, Vic. he's the guru.
