Once you pass 1980, you are now dealing with onboard computers, and calibration codes. Forgetaboutit.

Glad you didn't trade your rig man, you've got yours where mine is aiming to be. Once you get into EFI and all the later stuff (especially REALLY later, when it all turned to computer Jap tech), there's not a whole lot you can do yourself.
Man, didn't realize you were such a young'un. Lucky SOB to have that nice a rig at that age man. I was still driving my POS 80s T-bird at 16. Didn't get my first truck until 21, and didn't get my first 4x4 until now (well, about a year and 1/2). Damn...
