I used to have one, it was a limited and like a moron I sold it when the cam flattened:frown: . 79 would be a good year for a driver. Newer heads fit and if it has a 4bbl its even better buy. I paid 1500 bucks for mine and just needed normal maintinence. Nice car. Warning: do not put big wheels and tires on it-They don't like to stop to quick at highway speeds!

They made like 160 hp or so.

HORSEPOWER: Regal/LeSabre 170 @ 4000 rpm, Century 175 @ 4000, Riviera 185 @ 4200.
TORQUE: Regal/LeSabre 265 lbs.-ft @ 2800 rpm, Century 275 @ 2600, Riviera 280 @ 2400

Of course, they respond well to more boost.
