I'll say a 91 IS a Gen II, just because of the body-style difference. I
mean, we refer to Gen III's as 97+ because of the major body-style
change. The engines are still the same 318's that came in the 96's for
the most part.
A 91 is a premag as far as the engine goes. It's a TBI 318.
Here's another funny anecdote: in 87 Daks were carbed. In 88 they were
TBI, but the MAP sensor is on the firewall. In 89 they moved the MAP
sensor to the TB, and did some funny stuff with PCV routing (which is why
an 89 tb won't work on an 88)...
