Welcome to the site.

You sure it's a 390 and not a 360? Everybody said they have a 390 because it was the engine everybody wanted. Check your VIN to be certain.

Aside from that the FE engines are awesome engines. A decent carb, cam, and exhaust will liven things up a bit...

Also, UTI eh.... You go to the Sacramento campus?
