I would polish the top of the plenum for balance

My understanding is that Carrera went under a few years back and QA1 took over their business. Could not find bushing for the shocks here locally, they look stock

Some time ago I bought from a member from NY a 368 shortblock, build by the vette doctors. The engine had water leaking liners due to bad sealant. I had to take out all liners and replace the sealant.

Lee,

Why not order the poly bushings from Suspension.com?
