Hmm .... the '78-'83 Buicks only had 9 psi.

In conjunction to your comments, the more I read, the more I think I should either machine these pistons to remove the bulge or get a set of flat top pistons.

Took a break from the v6 rebuild and worked on the passenger 6-way seat rails. This is from an Eldorado. It takes lots of wiring and 6 relays to make this work.

I believe that's more complicated than the first Apollo rockets. :wink:

Routing the power mirrors through the door jamb always look messy...

Then I did some "decoding" and finally got to understand how to wire the mirrors. Will be using a 1993 Cadillac L+R power mirror switch. I will need to customize the bezel to make it fit.

And then, this, vintage period-correct fogs.

And finally... rear fogs also.

So the car is headed towards a luxury/rallye/pseudo european look and feel...
