They weren't available when I ordered an '85. Couldn't get 350"s until the TBI 1987 trucks.
Mine was so stinking slow with 3.08 gears and a 700R4 it down shifted on hills on the interstate. I put a 350" TPI in it. Don't know why they didn't put those in at the factory. Liked low RPM and got better mileage than the Q Jet 305" ever did. Pretty quick compared to other pick ups.
