Okay first off this is not for my car its a buddy of mine, he has a stock 85' 442.

He needs to replace a few things and is having a few small issues, maybe you guys have run into before:
I would like to know what parts you guys would use to replace these and some part #'s if possible,
Rear Shocks
Radiator
Intake Manifold Gasket

The problem he is having only happens when he starts up the motor. He says there is a strong smell of fuel right after starting it up. After a few minutes it goes away. I figured that was choke acting up.
 
GM 3043077 radiator is discontinued but replacements are available, you can actually still find a GM radiator but it's pretty expensive, GM has an alternative listed that's about $275.
Intake gasket is available.
Air shocks are discontinued, best to find aftermarkets

www.rockauto.com is his best bet.
