    87 barn doors

    There should be two clicks. Like the side doors. Try the latch at its furthest out position and see of you can feel the two clicks while closing slowly.

    87 barn doors

    There's a rod that goes to the top of the door it can rattle like a sun of a gun too. I think there's suppose to be a piece of foam donut to keep it from rattles. I used some pool noodle on mine. Helped alot.

    tbi wiring harness

    You can make the tbi harness stand alone pretty easily. It's a matter of a few wires for power when key on and a fuel pump wire. Heres the link and process i used http://www.gearhead-efi.com/gm-ecm-pcm-conversion/tbi-conversion-wiring.html

    Where to buy a replacement Y-pipe from

    I agree. The factory one is kinda junky hangs way down and don't have mandrel bends.

    Lift recommendations.

    I think you guys missed the hacked and welded part. I would be talking to ord and then you can do the one stop shop and get everything you need from one spot and they would definitely point you in the right direction on how to keep the same ride height.
