I am using a stock flexplate and a TriShield lock up TC. They also sell a nice SFI flexplate. https://www.trishieldperformance.com/index.html

Educate me, why not take the engine apart? If its frozen it's going to need a rebuild anyway. Once the crank is out, soak the rings and gently tap the pistons until they come loose, or break them up if they are truly stuck. Am I wrong?

And I see TA advertises them - not cheap! One section says rebuilt and the other says new. Product ID: TA_1822B 400 Rubber Motor Mounts Details Rubber Motor Mounts, `67 GS 400, original RE-BUILT, subject to availability, core charge applies

Doesn't do any good if you don't tell us who he is!

The tube leads to the choke housing that has a port to the manifold vacuum. It goes through the exhaust manifold to outside air. You are correct - it picks up heat in the manifold and brings it to the housing via the fresh air. I used a small brass tube to fix mine. Find a size that is tight...

Cool - I'm preping the engine and looking for a neat TV solution.

Hi Rob - I am doing the same thing. I am at the collecting parts stage. I just picked up a Extreme Transmissions 2004R and a converter from TSP which are my last "big" items. Seems like there is more information on the V8Buick forums for this swap. What transmission have you been running...

Happy to be Here

in line if it gets to me

The LED conversions actually use less amperage. See: https://www.v8buick.com/index.php?threads/h4-conversion-and-led-elements-the-journey-begins.333285/ Yes, its for the A body but it should still work n your Wildcat.
