it may be your diff that's off...
in 85 it should have a 2.88 giving you about 2800RPM at 60
if you are actually showing 3100 RPM at 55, then wow, yeah something is wrong. my bet is somebody wanted faster acceleration and pulled the diff out of a NA vehicle bumping your ratio to 3.46, or maybe just put in a 3.07 from a standard year turbo.
