Hello, I was just wondering what brand transmission shield fits the best on a 1980 Malibu (sbc 383 with powerglide transmission) with a stock floor and transmission tunnel?

1. I have an 80 Malibu drag car and would like to know who sells a reasonably priced driveshaft and what material driveshaft I should go with? I tried calling Dynotech for the past 2 months and no one has answered the phone, called me back or email me. They might be out of business?

This is my first disc brake conversion so what would be the reason to change the master cylinder to a bigger bore master now that I have disc/disc as oppose to disc/drum?
I just converted the rear brakes on my 1980 Malibu (with ford 9 inch rear end) to the Right Stuff disc brake kit. The salesman said that the calipers were from a 1979 Eldorado.
What's the best master cylinder to use on my 80 with 4 wheel disc brakes?
Are there any master cylinders that are...
Would the spark plug heat range have an effect on overheating? I am using a NGK V-Power UR6 plug. Would it make the engine run hotter or colder if I when up or down in heat ranges?

So I was looking under the hood today and saw that the two vacuum ports on the quickfuel carb were open. The vacuum caps that were on it dry rotted and were opened at the end. Would this have anything to do with cooling? Also, I noticed there's a small exhaust leak coming out of the number one...
I was going to try a 190-195* stat but then I thought to myself that the coolant will stay in the engine longer and heat up more so the fans have to cool it down that much more. I had a mechanical pump on it when I first got the car and the issue was there from day one.
Yes I did get rid of the air pockets in the cooling system through the overflow drain and had the car running until it heated up and started spitting out coolant through the bottom of the overflow.
The sending unit for the mechanical gauge is in the top of the intake next to the t-stat housing.
