Well now that my headgasket is fixed, the car is running well although it sounds very white trash due to the exhaust leak. The toyota dealership ordered the wrong donut gaskets for my car so having to wait a little longer before I get that fixed. I seem to be leaving a trail of power steering fluid now so don't have to worry about getting lost. I bought two new tires yesterday and put them on the front and the car feels new. I was shocked at the difference. I bought some paint stripper and aluminum wheel polish and will try my hand at polishing my sawblades. I'll will post pics of that process after I'm finished.
Also, I never feel my lock-up converter engage. I'm sure it is though, I just never feel it or notice a change in rpms between gears. At 70mph I'm close to 3k rpms with a 4.30 rear end.
