Woohooo! New formula owner!
I am so damn excited i could just wet myself. I just bought an 84 272 LS with 538 hours on it. runs great looks decent and was a screamin deal. I have been lurking on this thread for some time and decided I wanted a vintage formula after reading all the good stuff you guys threw down in here. So Hi everyone and thanks for all the information so far.
Now a couple questions I hope you all can help me with. what are the quirks or little tricks to this particular model? Anything I should plan on upgrading or replacing right away? It already has a couple thing done it has a set of chopper props and edlebrock carbs. through transom exhaust (loud and throaty). I would like to upgrade the interior and gage's first. the first thing i noticed is the rubber matting thats on the dash area its cracked and coming up in a couple area's. What have you all done with this area if at all?
thanks again everyone
oh and I already know cuda hates Bimini's lol!

Cleavers should probably go. There's better props out there today.
