        I had a '91 LE too... I did a 3" CAT back exhaust on it, and I got
1-2 mpg more on the highway... Mopar Perfomance has a tubular-exhaust
(headers) available for pre-magnum V8's I almost bought them for my '91,
but I ended up buying a new truck. One thing to make your K&N get a
little 'ram air', is to take the splash guard out of the grill (it's where
the
snorkle connects). Other than that, you are looking at engine mods. that
are available for most all 318 V8's '91 and older...

        Jules?? Got anthing to add to this??
