After a quick trip to Charlotte, I picked up my 385 right after watching the Dyno... 460 HP and 455 tq. Within days it was running in the 80 ss!

Good call on the rear end, But I thought of that before the motor :) I found a 10 bolt 8.5 out of a GN. Changed the cyliders, new brake lines, bearings and seal and that thing is like new. Also boxed the upper and lower control arms and put in Polly body bushings. Found a boneyard rear sway bar out of a Grand Prix.. perfect fit! The #1 plug is really not bad. Hooker did a good job with the ceramic coated headers I have, plenty of room and it's not touching at all.
