As far as I know, 87-89 are pretty free of quirks.
EDIT -- Oh, the motor alone. No. That's a large-journal internally balanced 2.8. preferable to 86 and earlier 2.8s.

Sort of like the old 250 inline sixes- they ain't much on power, but keep the oil changed and they'll run forever, we have several on the board with 200,000 plus.
The only things I can really think of on these is the distributor "O" ring oil leak that gets blamed on a rear main seal.
