I think you did well on this purchase! Car looks great, has a solid core, and an engine that's presently running correctly. Changing the HG isn't a terrible experience, just time consuming. The wallow/weave on the highway is probably shocks. Don't be surprised if the rest of the suspension isn't far behind. My SDL is still running on the stock suspension (minus rear springs and Bilstein HD shocks on all 4 corners) and it's pretty well done front and rear.
