Call Pat's ask for Steve Barr and tell him I sent you. (Not that he'll know my by name, but anyway), he's a knowledgeable son of a gun who'll talk you through your setup and wont try to sell you anything you don't need.

I will, did you go with a L/U or non-L/U?  And why?

Sounds right to me. Non-LU is black magic to me.
My 1958 Mamiya can beat up whatever camera you just wasted your money on.

L/U is definitlely the way to go. You can pick up 2-3mph in the
1/4 when you lock the converter, and you'll have improved
fuel economy. Overall Buick did a decent job with the transmissions
in these cars. With a few HD internal parts, they'll take a whole bunch
of punishment.

I got everything I could throw at my tranny, short of billet parts. I think the weak points are the front pump vanes and the OD band always burns. Look at gas these days. Keep your LU.
