Man it is really nice to finally hear someone talking about 85 Caprice Classic. I've had mine over 12 years and just now replaced the motor. Licked up and found a rebuilt 305. Funny that you were having those issues with the sputter. I too am now experiencing the same exact problem. And the odd thing is it makes you wonder if it's the transmissions because the sputter starts right when it's about to shift gears. You can mash the accelerator, but it doesn't seem to want to git up and go. Bogs down.
So did you ever figure out what the problem was? If so, what was it? I changed the gas filter yesterday. Still doing the same thing this morning.

OK, I'm sorry I don't have an answer for that, but I was wondering how you were able to take the transmission pan off? I have an 85 Caprice Classic 305, and there is the bolt and bar keeping me from getting to the last bolt on the pan. How do I get this off?
