Jon, I didnt know you upgraded to a 93, are you keeping the 77? When I had the old engine in my 77 It was quite noticable I just thought it had more gears than my 87. I do wish the 87 had a couple more gears to keep the engine in the powerband for climbing hills etc. The 8.3 with the 6 speed seems to pull better than the 8v92 4speed. I think alot has to do with the transmission keeping the engine rpm where it is making power. Do you have any pics of your coaches ? I dont think I have seen any.
