Yea I just dropped a used 87 tbi 350 in my 84 and slapped a carb on it and it surprises me how quick it is even with 2.73's. Its will burn the right rear clean off the rim almost to 3rd gear if you don't let up....From a straight standing stop, hell you can't even try and make a right turn into traffic in a hurry cause it will just spin and you don't go anywhere..lol
