>I dug out my dad's old broschures from '85 last night.  One of them has a 
stunning picture of a "limited edition" tqc, with the '84 front end.  In 
the back of the broshure, they listed the Coupe GT at 110 hp, and the 4KQ 
at 115, although the specs they listed were all the same.  Different 
exhaust, or just a typo?<

Neither, The '85 Coupe had hydraulic valve lifters and the 4KQ had mechanical
valve lifters.  The horsepower specs are correct.

The 4kq had a slightly higher compression ratio (I think) and a more
free flowing exhaust, including that nice 3-to-2-to-1 header.  Of
course, that means it had this ungodly expensive exhaust system too...:-(
