The cold start issue seemed to be cleared up and he had no problems for a couple days, then...

    Air flow suggestions:

    Finished recharging the battery, had my son help me re-crimp my fan and his magic touch made it work, pulled my mirror off to re-glue the glass again, hopefully this epoxy holds. Took her out to the store for a nice ride and so glad to not be driving the camry for once lol.

    Adding shoulder belts to back rows in 88 suburban

    My 88 only has lap for middle and 3rd row, I dont remember seeing any mounting points when I had the molding off but I wasnt looking either. Could probably fab some up with some extra front ones and make your own extremely sturdy mounting point

    Headlight Relay Mod

    The relays aren't too difficult, I actually prefer them because you can hook them up to your ignition switch and when you turn the truck off the relay turns off, also with relays you don't burn out switches.

    87 tbi stalls at lights and shifting in gears. Unless timing disconected.

    I had a similar problem with my holly tb, I had to adjust my tps to 0.65 volts with the throttle plates closed. I cant remember if the tps on the stock tb is adjustable but that could be something to check.
