But I have a few questions.
1. Being my daily driver is there anything I can do to make it more "comfortable"
2. The powertrain is out of a 79 olds 98, is there anyway to keep the cruise
3. Would a 700r4 improve my milage alot? If so how to go about it.
4. Anything else I could use from the 98, rear, disc brake setup etc?

Thanks
1. Seats out of an 80' or 90's A-body, Skylark, Cutlass, LeMans, 6000, etc.
2. I don't know, I think it might be pretty difficult. There are reasonably priced aftermarket units out there that are easy to install, though. http://www.ebay.com/itm/SPEEDOSTAT-A...sories&vxp=mtr
3. A 200-4R is a virtual bolt-in.
4. A tape measure is your friend. If the rear will fit, you'll need to change your master cylinder out for a dual unit. You should, anyway, for safety's sake.
