    steering wheel options for GN

    I had a junkyard wheel refinished in alcantara by Dallas Custom Steering Wheel: Dallas Custom Steering Wheel They matched the OE color. It was not cheap. But hand sewn leatherwork never is.

    Best sounding exhaust

    I'm not sure that's a valid comparison. Have you met a goat? The logistics of strangling one are immense, I don't think anybody's actually strangled one, so they have no idea what it would sound like. Entirely speculative.

    Best sounding exhaust

    There's no "good" sounding exhaust. The firing order is crap and it's a low compression V6. Nothing you can do makes this thing sound any better than a really angry Camry. Our exhaust note is not our strength. Select exhaust on power, not sound. If you want sound, swap it for a Nissan VQ.

    "Fueling Issue"

    It's the newer nozzles on the pumps at the stations. You just have to be patient and deal with it.

    picked up a rough 87 Grand National - how to approach project?

    Yup. You haven't provided enough info on what YOU want out of it. Sure, the rust needs to be fixed no matter what you're going to do, but beyond that, what do you want? You bought a basket case, that much is clear. The only way you get anywhere is set a goal. If you set a goal, we can help...

    4L60E Information Request

    The 4L60 is a renamed 700-R4. If he can get a bellhousing that lines up, and wire up the convertor lockup, it'll work. The 4L60E is the one with the computer controlled valve body.

    Any financial gurus? (Doubt it if you have an 80's buick lol)

    It's all about knowing the numbers, doing the math, and the the correct path becomes obvious.

    helium

    Nitrogen's advantage has nothing to do with molecule size. Commercial nitrogen is completely dry. No moisture. The difference in tire pressure that comes from heat is mostly due to expansion of the water in the air inside the tire. Get rid of the water and tire pressures become much more stable...

    Has anyone installed a Bosch Iboost brake system in a Buick?

    Whether they're a better price is kind of irrelevant. They provide brake boosting electrically with no high pressure fluid involved. That's a bargain at twice the pice. Hydroboost was obsoleted by these. It's over. Nobody should bother with Hydroboost ever again.

    Any financial gurus? (Doubt it if you have an 80's buick lol)

    Not a financial guru, because a thing like that doesn't exist. They're all snake oil salesmen. But I do know the law regarding 401ks, and you don't have to take my word for it because two minutes with google answers your question. You don't have to move it. You are vested in it after 30 years...

    Soldering question

    Why? The current draw on an LED that small is miniscule. You don't need 18ga to the board. Just extend the lead, don't try to desolder it if you're not experienced with it. Most of these micro-electronics have contact pads so small you're likely to ruin it if you don't have some practice and the...

    Fiberglass doors ?

    It will work fine. It will not be cheap. It will be cheaper and easier than repairing your rusty doors. It will not be cheaper than securing a set of good used doors.
