Good and bad. Good, cause they are the most fun you can have with your clothes on(almost). Bad, because depending how its been done it could be very unreliable. cooling is the biggest problem guys have with them.

Don't have any problems with mine. I lowered the bottom of my core support 3 inches (done away with body lift pucks) and run a 3 inch taller rad than most guys have.

If it hasn't been done on that 84, ditch the carb and swap to fuel injection. You'll love it that much more after the headache of getting it done is over.

I loved mine as well. '91 2wd std cab short box. It had a 3 core late 60s Camaro rad with custom tanks. Could beat everything but the gas pump.

The main problem I delt with was where the engine control harness went thru the floor was close to the header doughnut.
BUT with a G80 3.73: That Porsche snob at the end of the block became my dinner. YESSS
