    Questions on swapping a non lockup to lockup

    Apparently the car I bought has a non lockup tranny setup. From what I've read this does not benefit me to much in the street/daily driving I'll be doing. What are the benefits of lockup vs. non lockup? Will I be okay driving my car on longer (3-4 hour) highway trips?

    I found an 83 Oldsmobile in the yard with a 4.1. I thought it might be worth picking up to have since these are becoming rarer to come by. What years did the 4.1s have the rolled filled cranks. I remember hearing some 80s 4.1s did come with them. Not sure what years exactly. If one of you...
