Power bulge hoods are NOT all the same. Well actually the hood portion is. However 1982-1984 hoods have a functional "grill" in the back of the scoop that lets air in or out. Where the later style 1987-1992 power bulge hoods don't. They have a plastic plate that keeps air from flowing through there. It's easy to find a 82-84 hood at the yard and swap that part out.
