ok I got to take out the 68 yesterday finally. I noticed a little problem. When Im driving normally its pretty much fine but when i floor it, the car shakes from front to back (not side to side) and the engine sounds like its got a friggen rev limiter on it. I dont know when the car last had a tune up but I am pretty worried here. I dont know if it is the engine or the tranny doing this. I swapped the tranny last year to a 700r4 out of an 88 IROC.

Im going to do a tune up on it no matter what so what do you guys suggest for wires/plugs? I want to just buy a set of wires. I dont really feel like making my own.

well see....im having a little problem with the fuse blowing all the time. The one for the lockup controls. I have to recheck the wiring and see if it wore through anywhere.

Edit: And I also dont know if i set up my TV Cable right.
