What we are working with: 1986 Buick Grand National. Only uprades are cold air intake, adjustable fuel pressure regulator, stainless steel headers. Car has 65K miles. Leaks oil from just about every seal.
What I'm trying to accomplish: The most street performance I can get for basically a daily driver while fixing the oil leaks. Just looking for a list of suggestions... thanks for all opinions we may get...
 
You could look into RJC's PCV valve, or clean your breathers, could be leak due to crankcase pressure build up. If this is the case, this is why i don't use open valve cover breathers, they can get soaked with oil, Crankcase pressure builds up, oil leaks everywhere.

I'm gonna suggest three more to your list.

TT chip (turbotweak.com)
walbro fuel pump & hotwire kit ( turbotweak, racetronix.com etc)
Scanmaster ( lets you adjust TT chip from it and read codes/data etc)
 
good ideas..thank you!!! not that it matters,but I've owned the car for the past 12 years and I'm just ready to tackle it more now.
Gonna pull the engine and go thru it..but struggling with just a rebuild in basically stock or if a stroker kit would be worth it. I just don't know what I want....
Any input is appreciated...
