yes pace cars have the X in the vin... 1981 changed to the longer vin numbers compared to previous years.
does it still have the original turbo motor? lots of people dont like them & while they arent big HP like the bigger cubic inch motors, they can run very good when tuned right & with very few basic mods can run as fast or faster than a stock 76-79 400 or 455 t/a. if the engine is still in decent running condition i would suggest keeping it for originality & resale value. i have a 81 pace car that runs 2 seconds faster than stock numbers & a little faster than a stock 78 400 & is 99% stock.
check out 301 garage for all the info you will ever need for your car & the 301T engine.
