Performance:
This was a bonafide grocery getter until I bought it from a little old lady in 2003. This is the factory Olympic Gold color. It still has good street manners, but now puts out an estimated 350 hp and 400 lb. ft. of torque (flywheel). Top to bottom, here is the combo:

600 cfm mechanical carb
RPM intake
AFR 180 heads
9.7:1 350
Comp. 268 cam (.454"; 218 deg. at 0.050"; 110 LSA)
1 5/8" ceramic headers
2 1/2 dual exhaust with Pypes crossover
20" dynomax mufflers
Turbo 350 with 2200 stall
3.42 posi
26" tire (255/60/15)

Next project is either muncie 4 speed conversion or 406 build. Cheers!
