It is not clear to me what you mean by your comment above. What is your concern about lacing pattern? What do you mean by "...to allow spoke replacement."? Actually at least some of the Am. Classic stock wheel designs are 8 radial spokes non-drive side, 16 2X spokes drive side. The individual spoke tensions on the two sides are very close to equal. The chart I referenced provides the spoke tensions used by the OEM and which are recommended for wheel retruing and repair.
