come to think of it... that rpm range is more about 3000-3500
(see rest of letter for explanation)
i would like to find an outfit besides MP who makes headers for '93 318
MP charges 595.00bux
and a cam is also 595.00 b
they make a computer that is 295b but i might have it already...
does anyone have this that could give me some info that would tell me if i
had one installed before i bought the truck????
