I've attached some pictures of my new '84 Coupe. I'm trying to id some of the parts on the sticker. I did a board search but wasn't able to come up with any info. Anyone know where I can get the info to decode this stuff?
Thanks!!

Thanks, barge master!! It has 81k miles on it but the 4100 is dead.....oil pan is full of a nice, mucky oil-coolant mix. It really is a pretty nice car. A fresh coat of paint will make it look like new. The interior and trunk are pretty much spotless. I was thinking of doing a 500 swap but I think I'll just get a reman'd 4.1 and make a nice driver out of it. I don't really want to jump through the hoops I'd have to jump through to get around state emissions.

You're welcome for the codes! I tried opening them when I found them for you but for some reason my adobe doesn't work right :disappoin

Those 4100 cars are real tear jerkers and it's because of the emissions deal. I don't think I could bring myself to replace one personally, but I know where you're coming from. If I was in a position to do so, I'd take one and put a stock TBI 454 with all the proper equipment in place and it would pass like a 1990s car. So many guys are doing fuelie conversions now, it's not the big deal it was ten years ago. It still ain't cheap though!!

Around here the engine has to be the same as what was original. I could maybe get around it but......

Oh, they do that peek under the hood thing. Nosy bastards. We just do the tailpipe sniff. Plus, where I work we do the tests and I'm certified to perform them. Hey, with a fresh 4100 at least it will last till you get tired of it. Good luck, let us know how it's coming along.
