Default Bolt pattern for REPU axle?

I'm going to start working on my '71 R100 drag project that's been sitting since I picked it up in '08...it has a REPU rear axle on it with 6 lug drag wheels. I'd like to put something a little more narrow on the back for driving it around town. What are my wheel options and what's the pattern on the 6 lug axle? Is it similar to the Nissan 6 bolt stuff?

iirc it is 6X140mm, some newer 6X5.5" lug wheels also fit but the center hub is larger than most newer wheels. i know that the early 2000's toyota 6 lug trucks have the same pattern but i never got around to test fitting any wheels.

this thread may be of some help:

See a lot running Nissan wheels around here (not just REPU, but older B series trucks) or the old standby, knock off Escalade/Denali wheels.
