billboost37- I was just goin' by what the Pontiac brochure said on the # of seat functions

Car is all back together now, and running beautifully- it'* smoother-running and more responsive all over the tach. Now that it has an intake not coated in oil/antifreeze sludge, and a clean TB, I guess that was supposed to happen lol.

As mentioned, the Dorman kit was used, and everything but the coolant elbow went without a hitch (new elbow leaked coolant, had to drain, replace elbow, and refill... no more problems!). Me, I'm just glad it'* back up and running. Huge thanks to my dad for his help.
