84 will be alittle bit slower. I think those are CFI, the 85's are too. The 86's are SEFI and they are alot faster.

unless whom ever had the 85 before you did something to it, they should be exactly the same.

Well my 85 bird dident really have anything done to it , just that when the trans mission went out i had to get an aod out of an v8 mustang and i keeped it tuned up like plugs and wires and stuff like that every other month. Are the efi's really that much faster than the tbi?
