I had a 95 Caprice sedan, but unfortunately it had the 275 CID (4.3L) V8 and not the 350. Why they simply did not upgrade the older 305 CID, which was generally a solid motor itself, I cannot figure out. Was not pleased with the AC going on me before 100K either, or all four power windows going off track; the engine developing coolant leaks was the last straw.

Yes, the power window tracks are an issue. You really need the 350ci experience. I remember loading the wagon with wife, three children and gear, driving through North Dakota, going 85 approaching a logging truck. I just told Wilma to make it 95 mph, and zip, we were past the truck. Wilma wasn't even breaking a sweat, I don't think she went past 3K RPM.
