1985 GT to be exact. It is fairly clean for a 19
year old car, and to my knowledge it is pretty much
stock. Does anyone know the stock hp and tq ratings
for '85? Also, does it have a 7.5 or 8.8' rear end? Did it
come with duel or single exhaust? Mine has a duel but it
is split from one pipe after the cats I believe. I also have
an '01 Gt. They are both nice cars. Thanks for any input.

You got yourself a great car 210 hp 265 or 275 torque. The rear is 7.5" with likely 2.73's and 3.08's were an option. The 85 is last year for carbs, a holley at that, it has a better waterpump, better shifter, better steering wheel, better geared tranny(5 speed) first year of the roller cam. Also one of the first and only cars since the early hot rods to have Ram Air. The tubes on the inner fender that give air to the carb. Great, great cars. The headlight and front end are unique only to the 85&86, then they change totally. Again great car. If you need any parts or help, Pm me, I can help you out.
