That would be the 86-92 IROC with the 5.7L TPI, power ranged from 220/320 in 86 and 245/345 in 92, I believe. It was also only available with the 700R4, there is a mythical 5spd but no one has ever provided any proof...

Exctly, we didnt put the 350 with a 5sp due to the tq would twist the frame after a few hard launches,
