Tannerwilliams,
I can't address your comparison directly, but I do know that in the mid-70's the auto manufacturers were slapping all sorts of emission control devices on vehicles without much regard to mileage, power or engine longevity. The end result is that available power was minimal, even for larger engines. Overdrive transmissions, I don't believe, were very common. By the early 90's, in my opinion, I think the engines were generally more reliable & ran cleaner with fewer pollution control devices as computers & fuel injection came on the scene, and overdrive transmissions were common. Not sure about '92 Chevy's though.
To be honest, I think 2oldman is correct in that there is a good chance both may have had water issues.
Just out of curiosity, what are they asking for each?
Good Luck in your decision.
