What did you do to your G-Body today? [2011-2018]

My wife's brother stopped by to help unload the 4L80 from the trunk of my Mazda lol!
I then used the kids trusty ole Radio Flyer to shuttle it to the shed, !!!

The last time I dialed in the Qjet was before I had my electric choke working, so I had to redial it in. I got lazy and never did until today. Freakin 19" of vacuum. That's nuts. The car has a healthy (for a Buick) cam, .446/.468 276/281dur 112LSA. It idles smooth as freakin glass. Once I get exhaust on it, no one will be able to tell it's modded. And I can go through drive thrus without shutting it off.

Yes, the wiring is a mess. I need some loom. I ripped off all the old oil soaked brittle crap while I was tracing the choke wires. One of those piddly things that needs attention. Other than dicking with the idle mixture screws, I also fixed the curb idle screw spring. I guess over the years it got mashed and lost it's springiness, so I attached two small zipties, one to either end, and pulled just enough to stretch it out about .5 more times it's original size. Much more tension on the screw now.

So I just discovered something that I think will be helpful for people looking to upgrade their steering shafts. So I pulled 2 steering shafts from 2 95 Jeep Grand Cherokees, they were right next to eachother so I grabbed both. One was a V8 the Other was the I6, and the steering shafts are different. At first glance they look pretty much identical, but the opening for the steering wheel end is a smaller size on the shaft from the 6cyl, vs the 8cyl.
