Default need parts, any one know?

I also have an 85 corvette. one thing I need is somewhere to buy parts. specifically weather stripping. I am also looking for a transmission that was supposedly put in the late 80's early 90's corvettes. it is a 6-speed standard made by Bosch, anyone know of it?

But I said screw it and ordered some ptfe fittings to replace the rubber hose and ends that are on there currently...
I had one of those fittings on a transmission cooler and it would never stop leaking no matter what I did. Tossed it for a solid 90-degree fitting and never had another leak.

Sorry every one, I am new to the corvette community. I was wondering if the ZF (thanks miker2) and the LS1 are a good combo? or would it be easier to par it with the LT? As always thank you all!

Haven't seen any updates in a while.....how did you route your intake? Can you post a pic of it?

My intake rubs on the crossfire hood.
