I don't know what that is. The convertrible was only offered in the
pre-Magnum days, before we were blessed with the mighty 318 for "any"
Dak. The Shelby Dak was *not* a convertible, but had a 318; they used
an electric fan to make room under the hood for the engine. The Premag
engine bay was a good 3 or 4 inches shorter than the next revision.
The 318 and 360 are different blocks, and Dodge didn't even offer the
360 in a Dak until the R/T in '98 and then the QC in '00 - and never
available with a 5-speed. Thus, it should be fairly easy to cheeck the
truck out and figure out what it's really got and if it's original or nto.
