Awesome!! Drive it like you stole it. Would you mind disclosing what you paid since you assumed it was a clone?

I paid $12K for it

YIPPIE!!!
I'm so happy for you! I hope you paid clone price for a real Roadrunner!
A few questions and maybe a couple of things to look at that you probably have or would:
Check spark plugs.
All fluids.
Brake condition.
Front suspension, especially castle nuts and cotter pins, ball joints, etc.
A/F ratio if you can find a sniffer, even a short chassis dyno session may tell a lot.
JMO/YRMV
Is it a SureGrip ("posi") rear diff? What gear ratio?
A few tips, JMO..
This ignition coil and control box if you have a factory electronic distributor:
https://www.manciniracing.com/fboigboxrevl.html If you need an electronic distributor, call Don at FBO (4 seconds flat)
A street Hemi grind or similar cam (284°/appx .480 lift) new Comp Cams hydraulic lifters (822-16), locks, retainers and these springs 928-16, and I got all new push rods, but if you check yours for straightness and they're good, ok.
3.73 to 3.91 ring and pinion gear. 1¾" headers. If you can, do a nice dual plane aluminum intake and replace or upgrade your carb. 650-7XX CFM.
Break in lifters, of course.
Let that 383 wind up to 6K if it's still pulling and be amazed at how quick it runs!

I'm slowly going through it and beginning to fix little things that where just neglected. For Ignition it still has the old points and condenser and it does have a sure-grip with 3.55 for gears.....More to follow...much more

Yeah, I called Don at FBO and got hooked up on a custom tuned electronic distributor and control box.
What a sweet deal you got!!
