I would take that alternator and have it tested. Something is zapped. It or the battery.

You need an android helper that pulls stuff for you and puts it back-all without the arguing feature.  Your life would be somewhat easier!

I like the Firebird just because they were discontinued and they were always the option for those that did not want to follow the crowd.  The WS6 was my favorite at the end.

I have not had an oil cooler in 30 years or so on one car.  The other one, I keep wondering why it has not starts spewing.  I noticed Highway Stars has factory reproduction lines.

Have not noticed anyone else selling them.

That is interesting.  I guess the real question is if this is mainly a theoretical improvement that cannot be noticed in normal driving, or is it something that can be seen, noticed, felt on the street?

Wow, Phil!  I think you should take a trip to the Casino and buy a PowerBall ticket!

That is great news!  Sounds like the shop needs a new bearing installer.  Glad they manned up and admitted the mistake.

If I need to borrow some wire, I will stop by. I have my own side cutters.
