dead as a door-knob...

and i prefer the OHV design over OHC any day of the week, just the way i am.
also, i think DC passed over the competition with the new HEMI in the
technology department, but then look at what we get, an over-excited PCM.

i think all those 408 Stroker R/T's would differ in opinion with Gary... i
think the LA engines were an awesome design, that had something to offer for
everyone. reliable, relatively powerfull, and [relatively] easily
modifiable.

oh, and check out www.allpar.com for information on the engine designs. LA
was the predecessor to the (now former) magnum engines.

I got this info from www.Dodgedakotas.com:
.......Dakota offers powerful Magnum engines designed to meet the varying
needs of the compact pickup buyer. The 230-horsepower (172 kW), 295 lb.-ft.
torque
(400 Nòm) 4.7-liter Magnum V-8 engine is easily the most powerful in its
class, rivaling the performance capability of some full-size pickups. The
5.9-liter Magnum V-8 is discontinued.............
