So today I went out to pick up some stuff for the car. Hold down tabs and studs for the valve covers. New throttle/kickdown bracket. Fuel filter. Set of gauges. Sadly, no luck. So looks like I'll have to order online. Where is the best place to order parts from in Canada? Was thinking Summit?

Only thing I can help with is the transmission cooler (just aced my transmissions exam at school lol) You don't want it to touch your rad, since the heat from your rad will transfer to the trans cooler and thus not cool as well. Best way to do this would be to epoxy some chunks of rubber or plastic to the back of it then zip tie it to your rad. If you have a cooler inside your rad as well as an external, that's the best way to go. The line from your trans goes to your rad, then from your rad to your ext. cooler, then from that back to your trans. Don't be worried about your coolant being hotter, it'll still be way cooler than your trans, they're just built to run hotter. Apparently coolant cools the best since it's liquid. Good luck with the rest
