There sure were non mangum V6s - hence the little known, but totally
loyal group of Dakota owners that call themselves - "premaggers" heehee
- I own two premaggers. The 238 V6 went magnum in 1991. 1987-1990
Dakotas are premaggers. The engines underwent some moderate changes in
91 from the old LA style engine blocks and intake manifold bolt
patterns... to a differnet bolt pattern. They also did away with the
carb and the TBI (throtlebody fuel injection) and made the engines
multipoint fuel injection.
